ROGERS, Ark. — The City of Rogers has another 2018 Bond Issue project coming to life.

Dirt work has begun by the Rogers Police Department for a new and much needed Emergency Dispatch Center.

This facility will provide a hardened Dispatch and Emergency Operations Center capable of withstanding severe weather threats, including tornadoes.

The building will also include a multi-purpose room for tactical training, a training room, offices, a garage, and support facilities.

The addition of this facility will allow the current building to be reorganized and will accommodate the needs of Rogers’ growing city and Police Department.

Rogers held a vote on the 2018 Bond Issue in 2018, asking voters to extend an existing one-cent sales tax, which was passed by voters.

This sales tax allows the City of Rogers to raise money for critical improvements in the City through the bond issue.
