Recognizing the grand opening of the Lakeway Police Department's headquarters.
The new police headquarters is designed with the needs of the community in mind, incorporating modern features such as a forensics laboratory, a conference room, and facilities for juvenile processing. It is intended to function as a vital resource that can support law enforcement activities in the area for the next quarter century. The design also includes specialized elements to enhance operational efficiency and officer comfort, such as thick glass walls and flexible seating arrangements in training areas.
Senate Resolution 808 commemorates the grand opening of the new headquarters for the Lakeway Police Department, which took place on May 11, 2019. This new facility marks a significant milestone for the department, which had previously shared a building with the Lakeway Municipal Court. The state-of-the-art headquarters spans 30,000 square feet and is built on nearly six acres of land, providing ample space for the department's expanding operations as it serves a growing community.
The resolution expresses the Texas Senate's recognition of the importance of local law enforcement and the investment made in the new facility, which is expected to bolster the efficacy of police operations in Lakeway and the nearby region. This text reflects the ongoing commitment of state and local legislatures to ensure public safety and enhance community services through well-equipped law enforcement agencies.
