Completed 04/10/2026 Category: Sales Tax Funded Category: County Facilities
Design and construction of a new 62,000-square-foot Law Enforcement Administrative Headquarters for the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office. This modern facility will be located on County-owned land adjacent to the existing District 3 Headquarters and the Impound, Evidence, and Forensics Facility, bringing multiple law enforcement services together into one coordinated campus.
The new headquarters will replace the current leased building, which was originally repaired after Hurricane Charley and remains vulnerable to severe weather. The upgraded facility will meet the needs of a modern, growing law enforcement agency by providing safer, more efficient, and more resilient space for deputies and staff to serve the community. It will also include a new Emergency 911 Communications Center, ensuring reliable emergency response during critical events.
