The city of Mesa opened a new 33,000 square-foot police building for evidence storage last week.
The facility, 154 N. Robson next to Mesa Police Headquarters, will help the Mesa Police Department store its near 55,622 items of evidence the department receives every year. The facility was funded from 2019 and 2022 public safety bonds as well as money from the Public Safety Sales Fund Tax and the General Fund.
“Equipping our police officers with the necessary tools to perform their duties effectively remains a top priority for Mesa,” said Mesa Mayor John Giles. “The new Police Property Building reinforces our commitment to maintaining standards of excellence in evidence handling and storage as our city continues to grow.”
