Fort Collins Police Services completed a renovation that turned unused detention space at its Timberline Road facility into shared workspace, the department announced June 1. The Mental Health Response Team and Homeless Outreach and Proactive Engagement team will use the area.

Construction began in February and finished in the spring. The department said funding support came from the Woodward Charitable Trust and that police operations continued during the work.

The project changes how existing space supports specialized response teams. The release does not provide a total project price or measure whether the renovation has improved outcomes. Those are separate accountability questions from whether the construction is finished.
