New LAPD Bomb Squad Facility Opens in Granada Hills
The new facility is LEED certified, meaning it is environmentally friendly and energy efficient. It was funded by Proposition Q, a $600 million Public Safety bond, which voters approved in 2002 to build and repair police facilities.
It includes a 120-person classroom with interactive computer stations, an explosives robot training arena, a vehicle storage bay, laboratory and other features.
It is located at the LAPD’s Edward Davis Training Facility on in Granada Hills, where the 5 and 405 freeways meet, providing the Bomb Squad excellent access to respond to calls across the Valley.
