CANYON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MEET WITH OKLAND CONSTRUCTION FOR SHERIFF’S ADMINISTRATION BUILDING UPDATE QUARTER 4

CALDWELL, ID — On January 30, 2026, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) met with Okland Construction for a quarter-four update on the Sheriff’s Administration Building located on Albany Street between 12th and 13th Avenue.

The project has reached several major milestones. These include completion of the remaining roofing, installation of standard cement paneling, ongoing window installation and testing, re-asphalting of 12th Street, and the addition of bulb-outs at crosswalks. Albany Street has also been brought up to grade for future use. Crews have also installed all heating and air-conditioning units on the roof and completed tile work on levels two and three of the building.

The exterior of the building is now fully wrapped, with most of the air-barrier installation complete. This progress allows crews to move forward with interior finishes without weather-related delays.

The project timeline was extended by 50 days to accommodate additional items, including asphalting the parking lot across the street from the Sheriff’s Administration Building, currently a mix of asphalt and dirt, and Okland’s completion of the building’s audio-visual build-out. Funding for these additions is anticipated to come from project contingency funds and will not result in additional costs.

Currently, the project continues to move steadily toward completion. Even with the added scope, the contractor is still targeting a Spring 2026 completion date, in line with the original contract. This project is funded through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), part of the $1.9 trillion federal stimulus package passed in 2021.

“It’s been great working with Okland on this project; they have done a fantastic job,” said Rick Britton, Public Works Director for Canyon County.

As construction enters its final stretch, the Sheriff’s Administration Building is taking shape as a modern, efficient facility that will serve Canyon County residents for years to come.
