I was able to attend today’s ground breaking ceremony for the City of Pismo Beach Public Safety Center. Tour City has taken a monumental step towards enhancing public safety by approving $42 million in funding for the construction of a new Public Safety Facility. This state-of-the-art facility will be the new home for both the police and fire departments, providing them with a modern and efficient space to better serve the community.
Key Features of the New Facility
