former Brown Co Jail
(KNZA)--A date has been set for the sale of the former Brown County Jail.
The Brown County Commission Monday authorize the publication of a notice setting the public auction for Friday, July 29th.
The auction, which will be conducted by Sheriff John Merchant, will take place on the 1st floor of the Brown County Courthouse at 10:00 that morning.
Merchant will offer tours of the old jail to interested parties on the morning of June 25th from 9 to noon.
The Commission voted unanimously at their June 6th meeting to put the building built in 1924 up for public auction.
The building will be sold as is to the highest and best bid. The Commission has the right to reject any and all bids.
Brown County voters in November 2008 approved a one-half cent countywide retailers sales tax to fund the construction of a new 41-bed jail, which was completed in the fall of 2010.
