Based on the recommendations and results provided in the Space Analysis Study by Stewart Cooper Newell Architects, Pasquotank County decided to move forward with the design of the overall hardened, County Public Safety Complex. The ground floor will house the Sheriff’s Office and the District Attorney’s office. The Sheriff’s office has a secure evidence storage center, work areas for the different patrol groups, along with interview rooms and holding cells. The DA’s office is completely secure from the Sheriff’s office. Using Card key access and other security measures we have created a safe work environment for the DA, their team, and other attorney’s that need to have room to review notes and evidence. The second floor houses the 911 Emergency Operations Center and Emergency Management offices along with additional facilities for the Sheriff’s Office.
This project includes a high-efficiency, centralized mechanical system that is shared by the Public Safety Facility, Library, and Courthouse.
