The complex extends approximately two acres and is conveniently located two blocks from the village’s historic downtown that is undergoing a redevelopment. Our design, which placed an emphasis on sustainable energy practices, includes a 734-square-foot, two-story addition, which was constructed to include stairs, elevators, and an updated, inviting entrance. The entire municipal complex includes spaces for patrol, criminal investigation division, administration, records, evidence, processing, booking, holding, and training functions.

The project’s sustainable and energy efficiency features ultimately earned it a LEED^® Gold rating from the U.S. Green Building Council. The project team leveraged the design to contribute to the district’s renewable energy and energy conservation goals, establishing a precedent for high-performance green buildings within the village boundaries. With this project, the village set an example of sustainable development for economic vitality, community well-being, and natural resource stewardship.

We provided an array of services, including architecture; mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection engineering, structural engineering; interior design; IT/AV security; grant research; energy modeling; and sustainability services.
