Austin, Texas — According to state and local development sources, Texas Department of Public Safety plans to invest $5,000,000.00 to build out 8,000 square feet of new space in Austin. The company plans to occupy the new space at 5805 N Lamar Blvd Building A in Austin, on or about September 1, 2025. According to the company website There is no greater responsibility of government than protecting its citizens. Texas faces the entire range of threats to its ever-increasing population of almost 30 million residents, who live throughout the states over 268,000 square miles of rural and urban communities and along 367 miles of coast line and 1,254 miles of international border with Mexico. Texas possesses a substantial amount of the nations critical infrastructure and key resources and has over 313,000 miles of roadways with over 210,000 miles in the unincorporated areas of Texas. Currently, there are only 80,179 local and state commissioned officers in Texas working for 2,768 different local and state law enforcement agencies in 254 counties. While these departments are highly professional, over 50% have 10 or fewer officers, 78% have 20 or fewer officers and 91% have 50 or fewer officers. Regardless of their professionalism and dedication, it is not possible for most of these agencies to sustain around-the-clock operations for long periods of time or to invest in the types of capabilities needed to address significant threats. Fortunately, Texas is blessed with a strong sense of cooperation among law enforcement agencies and the support of the public, which serves as a force multiplier of these limited resources.
