Construction begins on Sheriff’s office parking lot

Area residents with business at the Sheriff’s Office and those visiting inmates at the Hamilton County Jail or Juvenile Services Building will encounter construction as the parking lots and driveways around the Sheriff’s Office complex are redone. Grinding and repaving of asphalt areas began on Monday.

Phase 1 of the project affects parking around the Community Corrections building and on the south side of the main drive while Phase 2 includes the main driveway and the north side parking lot. Much of the work is expected to be done outside business hours but visitors may experience some work during various hours of the day. Signs and traffic direction will be in place to assist visitors to the Sheriff’s Office.
