City of Akron considering moving police department headquarters to new location

WKYC Channel 3 Akron Mayor Shammas Malik has announced that the city is considering relocating the Akron Police Department Headquarters to a new, permanent location.
Officials say that the city has explored the option of renovating the Stubbs Justice Center and keeping the Police Headquarters in place, but is also looking into the possibility of relocating. Currently, the Akron Police Station is located at the Harold K. Stubbs Justice Center on South High Street.
As a result, the city has issued a request for proposals for detailed site information from property owners, developers, and/or their broker/agent representatives wishing to submit sale/development properties for the city’s consideration. Additionally, the city has issued a request for qualifications seeking qualified architectural/engineering firms to conduct an analysis of the sites identified for their feasibility in meeting the needs of the Akron Police Department.
“I’ve been very upfront about the need to decide the future of our Akron Police Department headquarters,” said Mayor Malik. “In our 100-Day Plan, I’ve committed to determining the future of those headquarters by the end of June 2024. Issuing today’s RFP and RFQ is the next step in the process in deciding whether we ultimately renovate the current structure and stay in the Harold K. Stubbs Building or whether we pursue a new permanent home for our Akron Police Department elsewhere. I look forward to seeing the opportunities presented from these two requests.”
If the decision is made to relocate, the Akron Police Department headquarters will move to a new permanent location in either a new facility on an undeveloped site, a previously developed site cleared of any existing buildings and structures or an existing building that is renovated.
