The Project
The proposed project will build a new combined public safety facility that will house the Nantucket Police, Fire, and EMS Departments. The new facility will be located on Fairgrounds Road and will provide the tools necessary for all departments to effectively and efficiently serve the Island of Nantucket for many years to come.

                                                 The Need
The existing facilities for both the Police and Fire Departments are inadequate for modern public safety activities and do not conform to current standards and Building Codes.
