2023 Bond: Public Safety Subcommittee

In summer 2023, the Public Safety Subcommittee helped identify bond funding for projects that will support public safety services and facilities to benefit the Allen community.

A series of workshops and one tour were hosted during May and June to identify projects and discuss needs as the city nears build-out. Residents were invited to attend meetings and join the subcommittee.

Workshops and the tour were held on the following dates:

  • Monday, May 22 - Bond Public Kickoff Meeting
  • Thursday, May 25 - Tour of Allen Police Department Headquarters at 7 p.m.
  • Thursday, June 1
  • Thursday, June 8

The workshops on June 1 and June 8 were held at the Allen ISD STEAM Center at 7 p.m.

Meeting information and resources were updated and shared on this platform throughout the process for those that missed meetings or preferred to engage and provide feedback online.
