Project Team

Wakefield Permanent Building Committee

The Wakefield Permanent Building Committee (“PBC”) oversees all projects for design, construction, reconstruction, renovation, alteration, or enlargement of any building owned by the Town, or undertaken on land owned or leased by the Town of Wakefield.

The PBC has the sole authority to procure engineering and architectural services, award bids for construction, enter into contracts on behalf of the Town with respect to matters within its authority, and administer such contracts in accordance with applicable law.

Wakefield Police Department

The Wakefield Police Department exists to serve the community by protecting life and property; by preventing crime; by enforcing the law; and by maintaining order for all citizens. Central to our mission are the values that guide our work and decisions and help us contribute to the quality of life in Wakefield.

Our values are characteristics — or qualities — of work. They are nonnegotiable. Although we may need to balance them, we will never ignore them for the sake of expediency or personal preference. We will always hold our values before us to teach and remind us and the community we serve, of our ideals. They are the foundation upon which our policies, goals and operation are built.

To fulfill our mission, we need the support of our citizens, elected representatives and Town officials. We need their support and cooperation to provide the quality of service we are committed to under these values.

Wakefield Fire Department

The mission of the Wakefield Fire Department is to improve the quality of life within the town, by providing a high quality emergency fire and rescue service, an excellent fire prevention program, including public education and fire investigation, and a fire fighting and rescue force capable of handling all types of emergencies. The Department will accomplish this mission while maintaining a high standard of training and education, maintain fire department facilities and apparatus, and interact professionally with other town departments.
