Adams County will buy a 297,000-square-foot property at 1200 W. 120th Avenue in Westminster to house the county’s Human Services Department.
The Board of Commissioners authorized the purchase of the Park 1200 property, which will cost $9.6 million. The new facility will consolidate operations that currently are spread across three locations.
Construction and renovation are scheduled to begin during the first quarter of 2015, with a targeted completion date in March 2017.
Once complete, an estimated 750 employees from Adams County’s Human Services Department, Child and Family Center, Head Start and Workforce & Business Center will make the transition to the new location.
