Several county offices will be closed as they prepare to move to the new Georgetown Annex building at the end of January and beginning of February, according to a news release on Jan. 15.

The new Georgetown Annex is a 60,000-square-foot, two-story annex located at 100 Wilco Way in Georgetown. The building will include offices for the Precinct 3 Commissioner Valerie Covey, and the precinct's constable and justice of the peace as well as purchasing, human resources, veterans services and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension. In addition, it will have a justice of the peace courtroom, multiple meeting and conference rooms, and a training/teaching space for AgriLife Extension, the release said.

A ground breaking ceremony for the facility was held Sept. 12, 2017. KAH Architecture was the architect, and Chasco Constructors was awarded the contract for construction manager-at-risk with a guaranteed maximum price of $14,919,081. The contract came in under budget and within the contractual schedule, the release said.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony will be scheduled at a later date.
