Rutherford County's first of several Public Health & Safety Buildings is nearing completion on Highway 99 in Rockvale. Rutherford County Commissioner Pettus Read shared some photos with WGNS of the progress. He was joined on his Tuesday (2-7-23) tour by Rutherford County Fire Chief Larry Farley.

Read says Middle Tennessee Electric energized the transformer for service to the building as completion gets closer.

The facility, and others like it across the county, will be fully staffed, 24-hours a day by the Rutherford County Sheriff's Department, Rutherford County Fire and Rutherford County Ambulance Service.
