The Lawrence Police Department unveiled the new police headquarters located in West Lawrence in December of last year, vacating their previous headquarters and downsizing their Bob Billings Parkway location.
The new headquarters, located at 5100 Overland Drive, is the result of the City Commissionâs Capital Improvement Program, a five-year program that identifies community needs and funding to address those needs.Â
âWhat this [new building] has allowed us to do is consolidate our operations, and it allows us to put them all under the same building under the same roof, which is something that we haven t been able to say in years,â LPD spokesperson Patrick Compton said.
