Commissioners discuss selling current juvenile facility, urge measured outreach and fundraising time
Summary
Commissioners said they have received a few inquiries about the county's existing juvenile facility and discussed a possible sale timeline that would allow interested local groups time to fundraise and prepare bids; no final decision was made.
Commissioners raised the future of the existing juvenile facility and discussed options for soliciting offers and timing a sale. The chair said the county has had "three inquiries" so far and suggested waiting until potential buyer groups have had time to conduct fundraising; commissioners mentioned September–October as a possible window to get more serious about solicitations.
The group discussed operational timing for vacating the current facility and whether furniture and staffing transitions would be complete in time for a move tied to the new center’s completion. No formal motion was made; commissioners agreed to monitor interest and bring a more concrete timeline and plan back when further details are available.
