BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Project Background
This Project provides modifications to convert a meeting room into a Judge's Courtroom and renovations to the front lobby. The one additive alternate is to relocate the processing area to the front of the building. These improvements will improve processing of many outstanding traffic tickets by consolidating flow of citizens to the front of the building and enhance the use of security personnel that are located in the lobby entrance.

Project construction is anticipated to begin in September 2014 and estimated to be completed by February 2015.
