The Village of Slinger is constructing a new, 27,000-square-foot police station on Enterprise Drive, with completion expected in 2026. It’s a $15.5 million project, which will replace the current facility.

Slinger Police Chief Kyle Arendt told WTKM that their service to the community will not change.

"It will give us more of an opportunity for growth in the future, but also gives us a little more comfortable quarters for doing our job that we do every day. Having specialty rooms and having dedicated spaces for things that are important, especially being right off of Highway 60. We will still have the same patrol area, downtown will still be patrolled on a daily basis. The new location gives us multiple avenues out, in case there is an accident somewhere that we need to access from a different point."

The Slinger Police Department currently operates out of the same  building as Slinger Village Hall. The facility houses administrative offices on one side and the police department on the other. Staffing levels have increased to keep up with population growth.

The Slinger Village Board decided on a new, standalone facility rather than expanding the existing building.
