Plano Selects CORE Construction for $42 Million Police Training Facility

Plano’s November 9 council agenda set out a construction-manager-at-risk proposal for a replacement police training center with a ceiling of $42 million. The initial preconstruction fee is $42,000; a later guaranteed maximum price would define the construction commitment. The posted legislation record reviewed for this update does not yet show a final-action entry.

The new 33,000-square-foot center will replace the department's 21,904-square-foot training facility on 14th Street, which opened in 1990 and has never been renovated. Plans include cadet classrooms, a tactical training facility, a 25-lane indoor firing range, a gym and lockers, and an emergency vehicle operations classroom and driving pad.
