Share

Discussion continues among the Warren County Board members on constructing a new jail. The next step in securing funding is placing it before the voters to decide on bringing a jail referendum to the ballot, which has been voted on by the County Board for the April 2023 election, explains Buildings and Grounds Committee Chair Sean Cavanaugh:

The Warren County Board also approved the purchase of 5.7 acres of land for just over $200,000, which would be the potential new site for the jail, located in the area of Fire Station 1 and the Galesburg Ambulance Service on the edge of Monmouth.
