Today, the El Paso County Board of County Commissioners voted 5-0 to approve the contract for the future planned substation in eastern unincorporated El Paso County with the selected contractor, Buildings By Design, LLC. The substation is scheduled to break ground this Spring, serving the citizens of unincorporated northern and eastern El Paso County.
“I am excited to see this important public safety project come to fruition,” said El Paso County Sheriff Joseph Roybal. “This substation will be a vital part of our mission as my deputies work to hold criminals accountable and reduce the number of victims in our community. Growth in the Pikes Peak region has been extensive, and this project will enhance our delivery of public safety services and help meet the elevated demands resulting from a 35% increase in population over the past two decades.
“This new substation will allow a more expanded presence of law enforcement on our roads and in our neighborhoods, ensuring the safety and well-being of families and businesses throughout northern and eastern El Paso County.”
“We are excited about the next steps in this process and will announce the details of the groundbreaking ceremony within the next few days.”
The ceremony will be open to the public.
