City of Lacey Police The Lacey Police Department prides itself in excellent customer service and Lacey's crime rate being below the state average.

This is due in part to the professionalism and tenacious pursuit of criminals by the officers and also by the willingness of citizens to get involved and report criminal activity. In any successful community, the police and citizens work together to ensure safety. This partnership has proven successful many times in the past and continues to be an important piece of the safety and security that we all enjoy.

The department attends many community functions and education opportunities, and also offers many programs including volunteer programs to get community members involved.

Vibrant Community Retirement Living Lacey has consistently been perceived as a great retirement location. Lacey’s proximity to both Ft. Lewis Army Base and to McChord Air Force Base make it a popular retirement choice for the military.

Recent demographics have shown that while the Sun Belt states are getting most of the retirement fueled economic growth, Washington State is the 10th largest retirement growth state in the U.S., and Lacey has been the beneficiary of a healthy portion of it. Drawn by the affordable housing, wide variety of activities, mild weather, availability of military retirement services and quality health care, retirees are flocking to South Sound. While businesses benefit from servicing this growing market, the entire Lacey community benefits from the energy, skills and experience of its senior resident, whether volunteering in schools, the Chamber or the local museum.

Health Care A key benefit to residents in Lacey is the outstanding quality of local health care. Health care is a major industry in South Puget Sound, demonstrated by the fact that three of the top employers in Thurston County are regional health care facilities, serving Thurston and surrounding counties. The size of the health care community is driven by the growing number of seniors attracted to the Lacey Community and the increasing number of young families who live here, all of whom are served by the quality institutions in the community. This level of care is one of the attractions that help to draw new businesses and development to the Lacey/Thurston area.

Capital Medical Center is a 119-bed, full service hospital offering local comprehensive cancer services across a five-county area. Since January 1985, the hospital continues to recruit quality physicians and expanding services with an emphasis on providing much needed primary care. Serving the growing number of families in the South Sound, Capital Medical offers 24-hour emergency services, private birthing suites, private room same day surgery center and ongoing free monthly medical lectures.

With emphasis on orthopedic surgery and cancer treatment, Capital Medical Center is growing to meet the needs of the communities it serves.

Group Health Cooperative/Olympia Medical Center offers its HMO members primary care, obstetrics and gynecological

services, as well as, specialty and emergency care and is the third ranked employer in the country.

Providence St. Peter Hospital was founded in 1887 and is the largest private employer in Thurston County, as well as, the largest hospital in the region.

A 390-bed not-for-profit facility with 450 physicians, St. Peter Hospital provides

a full spectrum of medical, surgical and mental health services, including cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, oncology, outpatient surgery, obstetrics, diagnostic imaging and medical rehabilitation.

Military Partners

Military facilities to the north have a major influence on Lacey's growth and economic success. Fort Lewis Army Post and McChord Air Force are located 15 miles north of Lacey on the I-5 corridor.

Lacey is a prime location for off-base housing for military families and Lacey businesses to provide many services to the military community.

Military Partners Fort Lewis

Fort Lewis Highlights

Fort Lewis is one of the U.S. Army’s largest installations and its only Westcoast Power Projection Platform. Fort Lewis can deploy one or more high priority active component brigades; mobilize and deploy high priority Army Reserve and Guard component units. Since 2001, more than 77,000 soldiers from 900 units have mobilized and deployed through Fort Lewis to support Global War on Terrorism, Noble Eagle, Enduring Freedom, Iraqi Freedom, and other operations worldwide.

Principle Units – I Corps (pronounced “First Corps) conducts Theater Security Cooperation activities within the Pacific Command Area of Responsibility to accomplish US regional security objectives. I Corps generates trained and ready expeditionary forces for full spectrum employment. Its resident units include three Stryker Brigade Combat Teams, plus separate brigades of artillery, military police, medical, intelligence, engineer, and sustainment.

Although Fort Lewis is not a city, its large military and civilian work force gives it the economic and infrastructure characteristics of a city. Approximately 31,000 Soldiers, 46,800 family members and 11,400 civilians live or work here.

The fort’s military and civilian workforce has an annual payroll of $1.753 Billion.

Fort Lewis also has an extensive infrastructure, which includes five schools, three hotels, two libraries, one airport, one hospital, one prison, one landfill, six boiler plants, one wastewater treatment plant, 12 drinking water wells, 1,300 miles of roads, and 34 miles of railroad tracks. This infrastructure is

tucked within Fort Lewis’ approximately 86,000 acres.

Unlike a city, however, Fort Lewis’ assigned population does not exclusively live on post. In fact, only about 30 percent of its Soldiers and military family members actually live on post. Most Fort Lewis Soldiers, civilian employees and family members, live off-post. More than 35,000 Fort Lewis people live in Pierce County, while more than 14,000 Soldiers and civilians live in Thurston County. More than 6,500 Soldiers, family members and civilian employees live in Lacey.

Joint Base Lewis-McChord – In recognition of their national defense value, the 2005 Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission directed that Fort Lewis and the neighboring McChord AFB would become a Joint Base Lewis-McChord. This new joint installation will be operational beginning January 2010 and fully operational by October 2010.

Joint Base Lewis-McChord’s primary goal is to preserve or enhance the warfighting missions already in place at Fort Lewis and McChord AFB. The new joint base’s mission will support these missions and the military members, their family members and civilians who work at this installation.

Military Partners Once operational, Joint Base LewisMcChord will have an Army commander and an Air Force deputy commander.

Units and personnel will remain part of their current services and their operational missions will continue to be managed as separate missions.

Madigan Army Medical Center With a military beneficiary population encompassing a six-state region, Madigan Army Medical Center is one of the busiest hospitals in the Pacific Northwest.

Occupying more than 120 acres of land, this four-building structure is located at Fort Lewis, Washington.

Approximately 160,000 Soldiers, family members and military retirees live in Madigan’s 40-mile catchment area.

Madigan’s health care mission is executed by nearly 4,000 staff members, which include hundreds of civilian and military doctors, nurses, residents, interns and fellows. Madigan also boasts a robust internal American Red Cross program, which is supported by approximately 200 volunteers who donate thousands of hours of free service monthly.

As one of the Army’s most state-of-the-art and technically advanced medical centers, Madigan is one of only three designated level-two trauma centers throughout the U.S. Medical Command (MEDCOM).

Recently, Madigan’s Andersen Simulation Center, which helps train thousands of doctors, nurses and medics each year, received a three-year accreditation from the American College of Surgeons, becoming the only Defense Department medical educational institution to attain that status. Madigan’s simulation center is one of only 21 surgical simulation centers in the United States to achieve a level one status, the highest for a center of surgical education excellence.

McChord Air Force Base McChord is home to the 62nd Airlift Wing, 446th Airlift Wing (Air Force Reserve) and Western Air Defense Sector (Washington Air National Guard).

Both airlift wings fly the nation’s newest strategic airlifter, the C-17 Globemaster III. The Western Air Defense Sector maintains responsibility for the air sovereignty of the western United

States -- about 63 percent of the continental United States.

McChord AFB’s mission requirements range from supplying humanitarian airlift relief to victims of disasters, to airdropping troops and supplies into the heart of contingency operations in hostile areas, to ensuring homeland security.

The 62nd Airlift Wing, part of the Air Mobility Command, is the host unit at McChord. The 62nd AW, with 3,483 active-duty Airmen, provides the Department of Defense a fast, flexible and responsive airlift capability. The 62nd Airlift Wing, together with its Reserve associate wing, the 466th AW, provides a large part of Air Mobility Command’s Global Reach airlift capability.

The 446th AW is Washington State’s only Air Force Reserve flying unit and is headquartered at McChord. The mission of the wing is to provide citizen warriors and maintain equipment to meet America’s global airlift requirements.

Reservists in the 446th AW support the Air Mobility Command mission at McChord and around the world on a daily basis, performing about 25 percent of the mission of the base annually. The 2,400 strong 446th AW is nearly a mirror image of the active-duty host wing and blends seamlessly into active-duty operations when called upon.

This rapid, flexible and responsive air mobility promotes stabiltiy in regions by keeping America’s capability and character highly visible.

The Western Air Defense Sector - a unit of the Washington Air National Guard - is responsible for the air sovereignty of the United States from the Red River Valley of North Dakota/Minnesota south to the Rio Grande and all points west.

The Sector works in conjunction with elements of the regular U.S. Air Force, the Canadian Air Force, the U.S. Army and the U.S. Navy to provide the earliest possible attack warning to the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and our nations’s leaders.

WADS’ peace-time mission includes assisting drug enforcement agencies by detecting, identifying and monitoring aircraft suspected of transporting drugs.

They also provide training, equipment and personnel to meet the dynamic challenge of defense in the 21st century.
