Dalton Police Station OK for Zoning, Once Location Is Chosen

DALTON, Mass. — The proposed police station is eligible for a special permit in all zones except a Planned Industrial Development zone, following a public hearing and board consensus.

The town has been exploring solutions to address the station's needs, forming the Public Safety Advisory Committee in July 2024 after reports highlighted the department's deteriorating condition.

Now more than a year into the initiative, progress seems to have stalled because of conflicting opinions on where the proposed station would go, Police Chief Deanna Strout said during previous meetings.

The sticking points have been cost and location, which has had the advisory committee in gridlock for months. Several public officials have expressed their desire to have a new station constructed on town-owned land for the cost savings.

However, the only land sizable to fit the facility is next to the Senior Center, but some neighbors have conveyed their disapproval for that space, which had been earmarked for affordable housing.

So, the committee sought guidance from the Zoning Board but left with few answers.

"We wanted to have a discussion with you as a board about where you would consider this and what your thoughts as a board were specifically," Town Manager Eric Anderson said to the board at the Tuesday meeting.
