The 29,440-square-foot renovated space will be the headquarters of the City’s Intelligence Crime Assessment Center (ICAC), a centralized hub that collects, assesses, and anticipates criminal risks and potential safety threats using AI and predictive modeling, rapid license plate recognition, gunshot detection technology, drones, and cameras. Through this state-of-the-art technology, the City is establishing its Digital Shield Initiative, creating a protective barrier to ensure the safety and well-being of its residents and visitors.
The Lancaster Police Station will be open in the Fall of 2024. For more information about the Department, please visit cityoflancasterca.gov/publicsafety.
