But that’s not all! The Annex will house the county election office and a spacious community room. This multi-purpose space will serve as a venue for voting, meetings and can function as a heating or cooling shelter during critical times of need.

Veteran Service Officer Linda Flannery can’t wait to provide top-notch service and essential support to our growing number of veterans and their families in this fantastic new facility.

The Annex will accommodate several other offices, including the Development Services Department, which encompasses Environmental Health, the Geographic Information System Department, and the County Engineer. Additionally, Indigent Health Care and the County Auditor’s Office will be located there, creating a convenient one-stop location for various county services.

The excitement about the new building kicked off with the groundbreaking ceremony on June 11, 2024, and by September 18th, the outer walls began to rise! We’re eagerly anticipating the grand opening to the public, set to be announced in August.

On Tuesday, the Commissioners Court toured the new facility. “I’m excited to see this project nearing completion,” said Commissioner Dana Macalik. “This single location will better serve our citizens, prioritizing accessibility and service.” Funding for this essential project comes from the American Rescue Plan Act. Get ready to experience a new era of convenience and accessibility in Rockwall County!
