June 10, 2009:
Below are two images of the conceptual drawing of the revised County Building project that has been submitted to the City Council for approval. This drawing is based on Concept 21 which was approved by the Special Committee to Resolve Jail Space and Site Needs and the County Board. Note that the design teams and Committees still have to go through a re-design process so the building may change. We still have to add fences, shrubs, landscaping etc. However, the drawing does show that it's an attractive, professionally designed building that fits nicely within the on-campus location. The re-routed 2nd Avenue provides a safer intersection to Lake Street. And, the cost of the entire project, including construction of the joint law enforcement center, remains to be within the $59.1 million that has been designated.
