Norfolk police division gets green light for renovation
NORFOLK, Neb. (KCAU) — Renovation and expansion of the Norfolk Nebraska Police Division will move forward after city council members unanimously approved a nearly $86,000 lump sum payment. This is the last step before the project is put out for bidding. During the meeting on June 2, officials with Tessere Incorporated presented new construction estimates of $13.4 million. Officials say increased material and labor costs, along with current market volatility, are responsible for the increase.

City officials say the city took too long to get going with the project. Members of the community also spoke out about the project. 'I, personally, have no idea how we can put that much money in a building. I, personally, recommend building a [whole] new building, a little east because we're going to need it eventually,' said Norfolk resident David Jansma. 'And we all know what happens when you wait again. The number goes up again. That's money we won't be able to use elsewhere, like street repair,' said Chief Brian Tighe of the Norfolk Nebraska Police Division. The police facility will be expanded to have a total of almost 27,000 square feet. The project is being paid for by the half-cent sales tax increase that passed back in November; the rest of the funds have plans to go towards street repairs. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
