What's the cost of renovating the existing building? I'm all for the officer's having a safe and clean place to work, but they should exhaust all options before having the tax payers foot the cost of a new building. From the pictures, it looks like a new roof and re-facing the brick would do wonders.

Everyone deserves a descent place to work and do their job without fear of the building falling down around them.

If that bldg is THAT bad..they do need a new one...I AM IMPRESSED with the figure of $1.7MILLION instead of $42 MILLION...I THOUGHT a building could be built for less than $42million lol God Bless and KEEP SALINE COUNTY SAFE.

I pray Jefferson County sheriff's deputies will not beg and stay out of the office and fight crime on the streets where we live.
