Hendersonville training center sparks debate over $20 million project
Hendersonville commissioners face a roomful of opponents as they push to authorize a $20 million law enforcement training center. Critics call it wasteful and militarized, while Sheriff McDonald defends the project amid concerns about threat perception and local needs. The 48,000-square-foot facility would include shooting ranges, classrooms, a gym, and a backup 911 center at BRCC, aiming to standardize training but drawing public scrutiny over cost and scope.
