The City of Port Angeles and Clallam County will hold a groundbreaking ceremony for the Joint Public Safety Facility (JPSF) on Tuesday, September 15, at 4:15 p.m. at 14 Zindel Way.

The facility, planned since 2019, will house Clallam County Emergency Management and PenCom, the city's 9-1-1 dispatch center, in one location to better coordinate regional emergency response. The new building will feature redundant infrastructure and be located near Fairchild International Airport for strategic disaster access.

Construction, managed by Vanir Construction Management and led by HB Hansen Construction, is expected to be completed by late fall 2027.
