Hennepin County proposed to construct a new medical examiner’s facility on the west side of the County Home School site (CHS) at 14300 County Road 62.

The proposed two-story, 56,000-square-feet building and associated parking is located south of the existing CHS complex, on the site of four existing CHS cottages.

The project will utilize the existing exit road from County Road 62 and the existing north/south access road to enter visitor parking, secured staff parking and the secured CHS facility.
