Construction to soon begin on Guadalupe County
Sheriff's Office expansion project By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera (Seguin) -- The Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office is on its way to getting that extra elbow room. Guadalupe County Commissioners recently approved The Koehler Company as its general contractor for the expansion project at the adult detention, law enforcement center. Judge Kutscher says after two years, the county is excited about finally breaking ground on the expansion project in the next few weeks if not sooner. He says the county is confident in not only the contractor but the overall base bid of $4.3 million.
This rendering from ThornGraves Architects illustrates the expansion of the Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office. The project is set to begin soon.
"We've been talking about the law enforcement center expansion projects for right over two years now. A lot of times when we plan for construction projects at the county, it is at least a couple of year process because we talk about the needs, feasibility studies, what plans may look like, projected expenses and costs and then get with an architect to design and then we go out for bids. We finally got to the bidding process after we designed the building and had seven contractors come out and we talked about that also in court how having a process like we've had with the bids -- having seven contractors come out and bid very tightly, lends a lot of credibility to the process because we know there's good value in the contractor that we selected and the price that we got because there were five contractors that bid all very close to each other so it really was a competitive process," said Kutscher. Kutscher say the base bid also allows the opportunity for the county to grow the project if necessary. See EXPANSION, page 2
