A preliminary look into three options for the future of Southold Town Hall and Justice Court facility recently completed by the town engineer revealed one common thread: all will come with a hefty price tag.
The first proposal presented by town engineer Michael Collins at a work session Tuesday explored modifying a portion of the annex building to serve as a court complex, as originally intended, would cost approximately $5.7 million.
Consolidating town hall operations and moving them to the annex building would involve a complete overhaul and cost approximately $8 million, while constructing a new building behind the existing town hall could total $9.5 million.
