The Warren County Justice Center opened to the public this week, after a cornerstone dedication ceremony was held on Wednesday. Warren County Board of Supervisors Board Chair Aaron DeKock tells KNIA News the years-long project came about through the collaborative efforts of many groups and individuals, and he is excited it has come to a conclusion.

“There is no way to thank everyone who had a role in this, from citizen action groups, to law enforcement, individual towns, former supervisors, there are so many people who had a hand in getting to this point. Even with all the ups and downs of this process, to get here is quite satisfying.”

The Justice Center will host the Warren County District Court system, Warren County Sheriff’s Office and jail, in addition to the Warren County Attorney’s Office and other county departments.
