Martinsville Police Department

Envoy Construction & Development partnered with the City of Martinsville on a forward-looking BOT agreement, guiding the project from planning through operation and transfer. Built to modern policing and community engagement standards, this new stand‑alone facility replaces inadequately small and fragmented space within City Hall.

The BOT structure helped control public costs, insured timely delivery, and ensured operational flexibility during transition.

Facility Features & Operational Capabilities

  • 13,000 sq ft of new construction tailored to meet modern policing demands, with spacious work areas, administrative offices, and technology integration across two floors.
  • Community-oriented design: Dedicated public spaces, a training room, and flexible combat/self-defense training areas that support both internal use and public programming.
  • Enhanced security infrastructure: Includes robust surveillance systems and evidence storage, preparing the department for ILEAC accreditation.
  • Improved officer support zones: Integrated wellness amenities and tactical training spaces that amplify staff performance and morale.


Challenges & Envoy’s Response

During construction, the team successfully mitigated:

  • Weather delays through proactive scheduling adjustments
  • High water table challenges during basement excavation
  • Consistently maintained workforce performance, keeping the project on schedule thanks to team adaptability and coordination with trade partners.


Community Impact & Strategic Value

The project empowers Martinsville’s public safety infrastructure with a modern hub designed for operational excellence and civic outreach. By consolidating services into a central, high-visibility downtown location, the facility fosters greater accessibility, collaboration, and trust between law enforcement and the community it serves.
