SUBJECT: Child Exchange Safe Space Relocated
DATE: October 2nd, 2024
GENERAL NARRATIVE
Construction is set to begin on the Justice Center Expansion this month. The construction project is expected to last into 2026. As a result of this project, the parking lot between the Kingsport Justice Center and the Old City Hall building will be closed. The Child Exchange Safe Space will no longer be located at this location. A new Safe Space has been established on the lower level of the parking garage located at 215 Shelby St. The spaces are clearly marked with green stripes and a sign designating the Safe Space parking. As in the past, this area is under 24-hour surveillance. There is a 15-minute parking time limit on these spaces and they are reserved specifically for child custody exchanges.
