Park City Police Department to host tours of new building

The community is invited to tour the new environmentally sustainable Park City Police building.

Chief Lloyd Evans, Sr. and the members of the Park City Police Department are hosting

community tours this Friday, Dec. 14, from 4 to 7 p.m., and Saturday, Dec. 15, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The new building is located at 2060 Park Avenue.

The Police Building, which officially opened for business this week, highlights Park City’s

commitment to green-building and environmentally sustainable practices. The guided tours will

highlight many of the eco-friendly design and construction features of the building. The

geothermal heating and cooling system of the building, for example, taps into the earth’s

natural stored energy to provide an efficient, renewable energy source and reduce the building’s

energy costs by nearly 50 percent.

Other environmentally sustainable features of the building and site include locally harvested timber, concrete and stone used in the building construction; site orientation and window location provides passive solar light and heat; a white roof reflects the sun’s heat to help cool the building in the summer; compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and motion sensor lighting save energy costs and

reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
