The new MNPD and Metro Parks Mounted Patrol facility features an expansive 15,000-square-foot barn and 40 acres of dedicated pastureland. This modern location includes specialized areas for focused training and significantly enhanced operational capabilities. This distinctive project has been especially rewarding, as it supports the essential mission of effective crowd management in community safety and large-scale events.

The upgraded barn provides ample space for horse care and housing, while the generous pasture ensures the animals have room to graze and exercise. Dedicated training zones allow officers and mounts to hone skills in a controlled environment, contributing to smoother and more efficient operations overall. The new facility strengthens a key asset in public safety—particularly for scenarios requiring visibility, mobility, and calm authority in managing crowds.
