Summary

Staff previewed a CIP amendment to remodel the main courthouse annex to bring pretrial drug court, veterans court and some courthouse police into the facility and temporarily move juvenile field services to the Munger facility; a staff member said the amendment is "just under $3,000,000" and estimated the annex at about 21,000 sq ft.

A committee member who jumped into the agenda preview described a Capital Improvement Program amendment for the main courthouse annex that will expand the facilitys role to include pretrial drug court, veterans court and some courthouse police functions. "This amendment is actually gonna be a little bit, just under 3,000,000 for this remodel," the speaker said, and added the remodel will complete the annex.

Manager Stoltz framed the change as part of a temporary shift: juvenile field services will move to the Munger facility until the Lincoln and Hydraulic campus is completed, and there will be an ongoing corrections presence at Munger during the transition. The committee member estimated the annex at "probably around 21,000 square feet," noting the figure was a rough estimate. No construction schedule, funding source breakdown, or formal vote was provided during the agenda preview; those details are expected at the formal presentation.
