Construction of Phase One of the Community Civic Campus is underway following City Council award of contract on January 8, 2020 to Swinerton Builders. Official Notice to Proceed (NTP) was issued by City of South San Francisco on February 20, 2020. The new Police Operations & 911 Dispatch Center will be constructed at the site of the former Pet Club building, located at 1 Chestnut Avenue. Contractor mobilization and construction activities began on the latter part in February 2020. Construction is expected to be complete in fall of 2021.

City of South San Francisco will provide monthly construction updates via progress photos in addition to neighborhood newsletters. The newsletters will help provide a summary of activities completed in the previous month in addition to providing a look-ahead as to upcoming activities.

Phase One Update: Apr. 2020

In approximately 18 months, the more than 100 employees of the South San Francisco Police Department will have a new state-of-the-art Police Operations & 911 Dispatch Center to call home. The nearly 43,000 square foot facility will house the 911 Emergency Center, administrative services, records, communications, investigations, property and evidence, patrol, physical training, a classroom and firing range. 

The development of the new Police Operations & 911 Dispatch Center wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for the residents of South San Francisco passing Measure W, a half-cent sales tax, back in 2015. The District tax went into effect April 1, 2016. The passage of Measure W ensures that the City of South San Francisco is able to maintain and enhance locally controlled City services that the community cares about and has come to expect - including neighborhood police patrols, 911 response times, crime and gang suppression programs, street maintenance and pothole repair, and other essential services.

The location of the new Police Operations & 911 Dispatch Center (former Pet Club store) was acquired by the City in 2017 from the former South San Francisco Redevelopment Agency in 2008 for redevelopment.

City staff awarded the contract to Swinerton Builders on January 8, 2020 and issued formal Notice to Proceed (NTP) to start construction on February 20, 2020. The total construction budget for the Police Operations & 911 Dispatch Center is $52,553,015, which is on budget with the city engineer's estimate for cost of construction.
