Wichita County reports progress, minor issues on courthouse renovations and annex work
Summary
County commissioners said renovations to the courthouse and annexes are progressing but noted issues with decorative ceiling tiles, a wind-pressure problem at a new door and pending roof work at the Law Enforcement Center; officials said they are working on solutions.
Commissioner Beauchamp provided an update on courthouse renovations and county annex projects during the June 24 commissioners court meeting, saying work is continuing but a few issues remain.
Officials said crews expect to continue work through July though timelines remain tentative. The county reported a mismatch between catalog samples and installed decorative ceiling tiles; staff are working on an inexpensive fix. Commissioners also described a new door that is creating a wind-pressure effect that can cause debris to accumulate and push on the door; staff said they are evaluating and expect to implement a solution.
Commissioners said the county will meet with a representative from Carlyle on the upcoming Friday to review the Law Enforcement Center roof. Other renovations — including storage-area improvements noted by staff — were described as looking good. No formal action was taken; commissioners said they would continue to monitor construction progress and address punch-list items as needed.
