Emergency Operations Center Groundbreaking

The new Cuyahoga County Emergency Operations Center project is underway with the groundbreaking taking place earlier this month.

Located in Broadview Heights, OH, the new 45,000 SF facility will provide Cuyahoga County with better coordination and management of emergency preparedness and disaster management by consolidating the following systems under one roof:

• Office of Emergency Management
• Emergency Operations
• Cuyahoga Emergency Communications Systems

In addition, the $24 million center will include a Special Operations Garage to house multi-jurisdictional public safety equipment and vehicles.

For this design-build project, Shook Construction has partnered with Architects Design Group and Osborn Engineering. Shook’s project team includes Keri Ash, Mike Schmidlin, Matt Gray, David Sedensky and Joe Lammlein.

Construction is expected to be complete in fall 2016.
