The Rock County Sheriffâs Office is seeking to drastically upgrade and consolidate its facilitiesâwith a preliminary price tag of about $116 millionâin hopes of becoming more efficient, safe and modern.
The sheriffâs office should raze the nearly 100-year-old Pinehurst building, according to recommendations from a space needs assessment filed with the county board ahead of its Thursday meeting.
Pinehurst, while not the only sheriffâs office facility that would see changes under the plans, was built in the late 1920s to be a tuberculosis sanatorium, according to the report filed Dec. 22 by Milwaukee-based Venture Architects.
Sheriff Troy Knudson told The Gazette this week he expects the price listed in the report to go down as the project moves through the process with the county and its board. Simply repairing some of the more urgent problems would not be smart investments, he added.
