The Lake County county administrator reported that steel erection for the county’s new sheriff’s office/jail project is underway and is expected to be substantially complete between October and November, with a steel-topping ceremony tentatively scheduled for Nov. 5.
The county administrator said contractors "have two more sequences to go" and that "the October into the November steel erection will be complete." He added, "There will be a steel topping ceremony... probably November 5 ish," and that commissioners would be invited for photo opportunities.
A commissioner noted other counties have asked about Lake County’s process for the project and said the county’s work is being noticed externally. The county administrator indicated the upcoming ceremony will be smaller than the groundbreaking but still a significant milestone for the project.
No cost figures or changes to the project schedule were announced during the excerpt. The county administrator said staff will watch the schedule and notify commissioners of the specific ceremony date once finalized.
