The Howard County Board of Commissioners will host a previously announced town hall on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, to provide an update on the construction of the new Howard County jail.
The town hall will include a presentation from the commissioners, a video rendering of the facility and an opportunity for residents to ask questions.
“We have made significant progress on this project, and we want to make sure residents are informed and have the opportunity to ask us questions,” stated Howard County Commissioners Jack Dodd, Brad Bray and Jeff Lipinski. “Throughout this process, we have been committed to doing this the right way. That means being transparent, keeping the taxpayers in mind and making sure every decision we make is in the best interest of Howard County. This town hall is part of that commitment, and we encourage you to attend.”
Tuesday's town hall will be at 5 p.m. in the Basement Conference Room in the Howard County Administration Center, Kokomo.
