I believe the funding is going through and the courthouse will get built. It is a long process as the Governor has had to approve the funding, etc. From my understanding, a new building is required because the old courthouse is falling apart. I'm not sure what all the issues are but I've heard there are water issues, sewage issues, earthquake safety issues and just a plain old need for more space. A lot of the offices of the staff are in the old jail...not a particularly nice place to work!
