LANCASTER – Lancaster County Sen. Ryan Aument joined members of the Lancaster County Chiefs of Police Association for a tour of the Lancaster County Public Safety Training Center after the facility received $550,000 in COVID-19 American Rescue Plan Act Pandemic Response Grant funds to make necessary upgrades to improve the delivery of public safety services to the community. Aument met with law enforcement officials in his district to discuss what improvements were needed. The funds will be used to purchase a Firearm Training Simulator to enhance de-escalation training for law enforcement officers. The funds will also improve the current firing range, including adding a new target system to replace the current aging system from 2004 and add a Burn Room to boost training for firefighters by providing another space for fire scenario drills.
