The SpokeSman • WedneSday, July 21, 2021 P3 Police Continued from P1 The lot at 2983 NW Ca- nal Blvd., located near U.S. Highway 97 and adjacent to a self-storage facility, is currently vacant and unconnected to wa- ter, wastewater and electricity. The estimated closing date for the sale is in September. An environmental assessment and other due diligence measures remain. At the next meeting of the council in August, councilors will discuss how to finance the project, which is expected to cost between $20 and $25 mil- lion. Options include financing the project internally, backed by the general fund, using a general obligation bond that would have to be approved by voters, or a mix of the two. The council has procured public opinion polling to gauge pub- lic support of a tax levy that Calendar Continued from P1 local author will discuss her book; 6-7 p.m.; Roundabout Books, online; roundaboutbookshop.com Social Crises — Homelessness, Addiction, and Mental Health in Deschutes County: A panel discussion on some of the basic underpinnings behind social cri- ses; 7-8:30 p.m.; free; registration required; Deschutes Public Library, online; deschuteslibrary.org FRIDAY 7/23 Coffee Clatter with Habitat for Humanity: The Redmond Chamber of Commerce will host a networking event with the local organization; 8:30-9:30 a.m.; free; Quince Park, 1101 NW Quince Ave., Redmond; vis- itredmondoregon.com Live at the Vineyard — Olivia Knox: The local indie singer/song- writer will perform.

Late last month, the city of Redmond learned it would re- ceive $6 million in American Rescue Plan COVID-19 relief funding, $3 million of which is intended to go to a mental health component of the police station project. With the on-site mental health triage center, the new facility is being envisioned as a “public safety complex.” The 1,500-square-foot triage cen- ter would likely operate only during the daytime. The Deschutes County Sta- bilization Center in Bend, open 24 hours a day, has been hugely successful in its 13 months of operation, according to Adam Goggins, behavioral health specialist with Deschutes County. Goggins said since the center has been open, 30 people have indicated to staff they would have killed themselves had the facility not been there. The facility sees a daily av- erage of nine people ranging in age from 6 to 93 years old. Most people come in during the day, though the center is busy throughout the night. Mondays tend to be the busi- est days. More and more users of the facility are being dropped off by police officers and leaving with plans for follow-up care, which is an encouraging devel- opment, Goggins said. “I guess as a society we’ve chosen for police to be the ones who handle mental health calls. It’s unfortunate that that’s how a lot of people get in police custody,” Goggins said. Construction of a new Red- mond police public safety campus is targeted to begin in late 2022 or early 2023, with the facility operational by 2025. e Reporter: 541-383-0325, gandrews@bendbulletin.com Ryan Brennecke/The Bulletin Traffic drives along U.S. Highway 97 near the site of the proposed police station, at 2983 NW Canal Blvd. in Redmond. ‘70s to today’s top 40; 7-9 p.m.; $15 plus fees; General Duffy’s Water- hole, 404 SW Forest Ave., Redmond; eventbrite.com Company Grand: The nine-piece rock, funk and R&B band will per- form. 21 and over; 7-10 p.m.; $15 plus fees; High Desert Music Hall, 818 SW Forest Ave., Redmond; high- desertmusichall.com SATURDAY 7/24 Art at the Music Hall: The open-air art show will feature local artists and craftspeople showcasing and selling their work; 10 a.m.-5 p.m.; free; High Desert Music Hall, 818 SW Forest Ave., Redmond; drycanyonartsasso- ciation.com Saturday Market: The weekly mar- ket will feature local businesses and vendors selling a variety of items including antiques, handmade goods, clothing, jewelry and more; 11 a.m.-3 p.m.; free; General Duffy’s Waterhole, 404 Southwest Forest Avenue, Redmond; facebook.com/ generalduffys Microwave Candle Craft: Learn how to make candles using the mi- crowave.
