The Dallas County Supervisors are hosting an open house to celebrate their new multi-million dollar facility.

This is the first opportunity for the public to see the new law enforcement center, which now houses the administration, patrol, and civil divisions within the Sheriff’s Office. The building also has a jail, which is expected to be ready by the end of the month. The DCSO is offering public tours 2-8 p.m Sunday. The Dallas County Supervisors wanted to have a part in celebrating the facility that’s been on their agenda for nearly a decade. The Supervisors will be hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 1:30 p.m. Dallas County Sheriff Chad Leonard tells Raccoon Valley Radio he’s had to delay holding a public event due to concerns of COVID-19. Sheriff Leonard is asking those who want tours to bring a face covering.

The new center is located along Highway 6, just east of R Avenue in Adel. The Raccoon Valley Radio Big Red Radio will be broadcasting live from 2-5 p.m.
