As part of a design-build team with Clark Construction and with the county's input, we designed this public safety operations complex, which accommodates 276 personnel and consists of four major components: an incident command center for 24/7 operations during emergency activations, emergency dispatch center, fire-rescue fleet maintenance, and fire-rescue training. The main building is constructed to withstand 200 mile per hour, category 5 hurricane force winds, with 11-inch thick concrete walls and large missile impact resistant (level E) windows and doors. The complex can maintain operations independent of outside utilities—such as electric, water, and sewer—for three days and provide countywide communication for public safety and emergency management operations. It also houses the county's primary data center.
