CNH Architects is honored to be awarded as the architect for this high-priority public safety facility. The proposed project is to construct a new combined public safety facility on the current fire station site at 285 Engler Boulevard in Chaska. Currently, Police and Fire are located on separate campuses. The new project is greatly expanding to incorporate both departments at this location. Staffing needs have exceeded available space, and both facilities currently lack the necessary training spaces, parking, and security required.

CNH’s largest fire station to date, the City of Burnsville’s Fire Station No. 1 is home to a crew of all full-time firefighters and more than 44,000 SF with 10 apparatus bays. Firefighter safety was one of nine top priorities for the station. Multiple contamination zones and a designated de-contamination area will allow firefighters to keep contaminated equipment and clothing in the apparatus bay until decontaminated. Another priority in the design was firefighter mental health. A warning system that slowly ramps up with alert tones and lighting while only alerting responding staff ensures firefighters are not awoken in an abrupt manner. The station includes areas for relaxation with different lighting to promote natural sleep rhythms, as well as a yoga studio and meditation garden. Extensive firefighter training features including Firefighter 1 and advanced training elements are another highlight of the station.
