Ribbon Cutting for First Responders Campus

Oct 13, 2023

Construction on the long-awaited First Responders Campus is complete and Fresno City College will celebrate with an official Ribbon Cutting ceremony on Friday, October 20, 2023, at 10 a.m. The facility is located at 3300 E. North Ave.

The new campus brings together all Fresno City College first responder programs— Police Academy, Fire Academy, and the Emergency Medical Technician program (EMT)—into one 40-acre location.  The Fire Academy and EMT program had been housed at the FCC Career and Technology Center on Annadale Avenue and the Police Academy moved from the main campus.

The new facility will include state-of-the-art tools to train cadets in the newest equipment available. There will be fire training structures, a scenario village for police training, simulation spaces. a running track, and a driving pad with room for expansion. The majority of the funding for the $46.1 million project came from the 2002 Measure E ($45m) with $1.1 million coming from the 2016 Measure C.

Construction by Bush Construction, Inc. began in February 2022. The campus was designed by PBK Architects. The modular building construction contract was awarded to American Modular Systems.
