Potential sobriety center site raises questions from Travis County Commissioners

Published on March 1, 2016 under CommunityImpact

The site being considered for a joint city and county sobriety center—the Travis County Medical Examiner’s Office located at 1213 Sabine St. in Austin—was a topic of discussion during the Travis County Commissioners Court’s March 1 meeting. The building is scheduled to be vacated in summer 2017, and the county may look to occupy it by fall 2017, said Roger Jefferies, Justice & Public Safety County Executive. The center would target people arrested for public intoxication, and in 2015 about 26 individuals met that criteria, 75 percent of whom were from Travis County, Jefferies said.
