Facility Review Advisory Board to hold Open House

In 2014, the Cape Girardeau County Commission formed a citizens advisory board to review three options as proposed by Treanor Architects.  The Advisory Board has reviewed the options as presented by the architect, and participated in detailed tours of County owned buildings.  The Advisory Board will conduct two open houses to solicit public input prior to their final recommendation to the Cape Girardeau County Commission, January 26, 2015.

The County Commission embarked on this process in 2013 to formulate a long term facility plan to provide a safe, and efficient space for conducting criminal and civil court in Cape Girardeau County. 

The first open house will be held at the Osage Center in Cape Girardeau, Thursday, January 8, 2015, 5:00pm – 7:00pm.  The second open house opportunity will be located at the Riverside Regional Library in Jackson, Thursday January 22, 2015, 5:00pm – 6:30pm.  The meetings will be conducted in an informal manner with Advisory Board members, County Commissioners, and other local officials present to answer inquiries from the citizens.
