County Won’t Quote Sale Price On Courthouse Deal
La Crosse County will not name a sale price for the courthouse until the city signals willingness to buy. Alderman Emil Schultz says the county board committee formed to sell the courthouse provided the information, with reports expected at February council. He cites an appraised courthouse square value of 280000 and notes prior plans to spend 200000 to update the building for county use, plus 7500 to lower the circuit courtroom ceiling. Schultz argues the city could save by purchasing at appraised value and adjusting to fit city needs. He notes the new city hall may cost around 2 million and the county building would house a jail nearby for temporary city use.
