Investments Public Safety


In 2024, Saint Louis County invested significantly in public safety with the opening of two new police precincts and the groundbreaking of a third public safety complex. Public safety is the top issue for our residents and businesses, and they have come to expect a safe place to live, work, raise a family and build a future.


Additionally, the largest percentage of Saint


Louis County’s general revenue fund goes to the police department to ensure it is fully staffed and has the training, equipment, and facilities for officers to do their jobs safely and effectively.


In March, Saint Louis County opened the


new Affton Southwest Precinct, named after Officer Blake Snyder, who was killed in the line of duty in 2016. At more than 15,000 square feet, this facility is more than three times the size of the old precinct.


In June, Saint Louis County broke ground on the new Mid-County Public Safety Complex. This $46 million facility will house Police Precinct 2, the Police Intelligence Center, and its Property Control Center. It is being built on County-owned land in Maryland Heights.


In November, the new North County Police


Precinct opened. The facility, located on Dunn Road, is named in honor of Officer Joann Liscombe, who lost her life in the line of duty in 1991.


This $12.5 million precinct, as well as the


Affton-Southwest Precinct, were funded with money from Proposition P, a public safety sales tax approved by voters in 2017.
