Site work and new construction of a mixed-use development in Berryville, Virginia. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a 10,000-square-foot municipal facility; and for site work for a municipal facility.

This new building would house the Department of Social Services, Health Department, and potentially Northwestern Community Services. A more detailed space study and preliminary architectural design is needed but we are budgeting at this point for a 10,000 square foot building at $150 per square foot. This building would be located in an area currently served by public water and sewer. The Department of Social Services is currently located in a former restaurant building and has configuration challenges. There are also limitations to the current Health Department office space. Northwestern Community Services currently uses a small building located next to the School Board office. There are benefits to having the services provided by each entity located close to one another. The County owns the Social Services Department so if that building was sold, the proceeds could be used to help recoup the costs of the new building and the county has started setting aside money in the designated fund balance for this project. Project is in CIP for 2023-2028. As of July 24, 2023, per owner, the project is still several years away and still being discussed. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
