ROSWELL, Ga. - The Roswell Police Department now has a new home that the chief says will improve public safety in the community. The chief says the new location puts them closer to many of their calls.
The backstory:
This new police headquarters is part of a $52 million Public Safety Bond approved by voters in 2022. The city purchased the building last year for $8 million plus $600,000 in closing costs.

What they're saying:
"The old space was built in '91. Our police department was half the size then, so we've over doubled in size," Roswell Police Chief James Conroy said.
Chief James Conroy says most of the Police Department is now working out of the new building at 1080 Hol
