Town of Falmouth to Host Community Outreach Forum
Regarding Proposed New Police Station
FALMOUTH, MA, September 18, 2025 – The Town of Falmouth will host a community outreach forum on Thursday, September 25, 2025 to review the status of the proposed new police station and solicit community input.
The community forum will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Lawrence Middle School Auditorium located at 113 Lakeview Ave, Falmouth, MA.
Representatives of the Police Station Advisory Committee, Police Department, as well as the owner’s project manager (OPM) and architect will provide a presentation to review the results of the feasibility study and concept level designs including site selection, concept level cost estimates and project timeline. Following the presentation, the public will be invited to ask questions and provide input on the site selection and conceptual designs.
“This is the first of many opportunities the community will have to weigh in on the proposal to replace the existing undersized police station with a state of the art facility that reflects the importance of public safety and the Falmouth Police Department to the community,” said Town Manager Mike Renshaw. The primary focus of this forum is to solicit input on site selection. A request for funds to continue the design process from schematic design through construction bidding will be considered at the Town Meeting on November 17, 2025. “There will be more opportunities for public input as we continue the design process in calendar year 2026, provided Town Meeting approves funding this November,” he continued. The proposed timeline calls for Town Meeting consideration of construction funds in the fall of 2026.
Information related to this project will be posted on the Police Station Advisory Committee website as it becomes available. https://www.falmouthma.gov/1522/Police-Station-Advisory-Committee
