Madison County officials recently held a meeting to discuss plans for a new juvenile justice complex. According to Mayor AJ Massey, the county plans to negotiate with 10 out of 13 property owners to purchase their land for the complex. A commercial appraiser will determine a fair market value for the properties. The county will use eminent domain if necessary to acquire the remaining land. The new complex aims to provide necessary resources for juvenile offenders and prevent future crime. WBBJ News 7 has more on the plans, including comments from Madison County Juvenile Court Judge Christie Little.
