April 12, 2021 Courts complex remains top use for old jail site Written by Geoffrey Plant on April 12, 2021 While some county officials worried that a visioning session remotely held last week to collect community input on future uses for the old Grant County Jail threatened to derail plans to establish a central judicial complex on the site — which is located behind the Grant County Courthouse — ultimately what is done with the property will be their decision to make. During last week’s commission meeting, District 3 Commissioner Alicia Edwards, who wasn’t able to attend the April 7 visioning session, said, “It was my understanding that we were going to be looking at the old jail as part of a new courthouse complex, [but] the chatter I am hearing is not connecting the old jail to the courthouse complex thing.”
