PUBLIC SAFETY PLAN
Aging public safety facilities are adversely impacting the ability of our first responders – firefighters, police officers and public works staff – to provide quality service to our community. And, in a major event like an earthquake, these seismically unsafe buildings could prevent emergency teams from providing immediate aid.
The City has a proposal to invest in much-needed public safety facilities and equipment, including fire stations, fire trucks and other lifesaving equipment; a justice center to house the Tukwila Police Department and Municipal Court; and modern Public Works shops. We want your feedback and input! Please join us at one or all of these open houses and learn more about this effort from Tukwila firefighters, police officers and other City staff.
