Summary

County staff updated commissioners on public outreach for a proposed jail project, said a presentation and jail tours are scheduled in Grafton on March 20 and March 22, and encouraged residents to consult the project website and attend meetings.

County staff provided an update on a proposed jail project and outreach schedule during the March 17 Walsh County commissioners meeting. Staff said the project team (including Samuels group and consultants) prepared presentations and local advertising, and that two public jail tours are scheduled in Grafton: a tour on March 20 and another on March 22.

Staff said the team ran radio ads, posted materials on a project website and social media and linked the materials from the county homepage to help residents prepare questions. Commissioners and staff encouraged residents to review the frequently asked questions and attend the public meetings; staff said the presentation will be 30–40 minutes followed by questions and that staff will arrange alternate tour times for people who cannot attend the scheduled sessions.

No county action was required; the update focused on outreach and logistics for the upcoming public meetings and tours.
