As of April 21, 2025, the Fort Mill Police Department relocated its headquarters to a new office space at 205 North White Street, inside the newly remodeled Fort Mill Town Hall. This move is part of the department's ongoing efforts to enhance its services and provide a more efficient and modern environment for its officers and staff.

The new facility offers more space while maintaining a central location in town with increased visibility, ensuring the department can serve the community more effectively. In addition, the new location provides enhanced resources, improved security features and greater accessibility for the public, all of which will help the department continue to deliver high-quality services to the Fort Mill community.
