The Pike County Sheriff’s Office and Pike County District Attorney’s Office will reopen at the Pike County Judicial Complex on Monday.

On Friday, both offices moved personnel, equipment and files from temporary offices at the Pike County Courthouse back to the judicial complex. Employees worked Friday afternoon to unpack and get offices ready for business on Monday.

In late January, there were equipment failures in the complex’s HVAC system which led to widespread flooding in the building.

Several O-rings in the system’s water circulation system broke during the winter storm which covered Pike County in 3-inches to 6-inches of snow.

There were chemical additives to prevent mold growth in the cooling system. Pike County Commission Chairman Chad Copeland said during and after the initial clean-up, multiple employees reported a variety of symptoms that ranged from rashes and coughs to apparent chemical burns.

Some elected officials had safety concerns about the building and temporarily relocated to the Pike County Courthouse.

Copeland said the county had been working with elected officials to keep them apprised of safety reports as well as ongoing repairs at the judicial complex.

Thomas said he’d received word they could move back into the building safely.

“It’s good to be back,” he said. “We didn’t have a lot to move. We’d just moved some records and essential equipment to the courthouse. We have everything back in place and we’ll be open on Monday.”

Tarbox said the DA’s office had also completed relocation and would reopen on Monday as well.

County Administrator McKenzie Wilson said she had talked with Pike County Circuit Clerk Jamie Scarbrough and her office will return to the judicial complex soon. Wilson said the circuit clerk’s office had to coordinate with the state in order to relocate computers that were connected to state databases.
