The Sedgwick County Commission voted unanimously Wednesday to approve a purchase contract to buy the former Riverside Hospital for $4.1 million for a new government center. The sale is contingent on the county inspecting the facility over the next 90 days and determining that it can cost-effectively be converted to government office space. The county put a $25,000 earnest-money deposit on the building, which is refundable if the county decides not to proceed, County Counselor Mike Pepoon said.
