Judiciary seeks county commitment to unlock $20 million match for new Grant County courthouse

Chief Judge Jared Hochbeck told the Grant County Board of Commissioners that the judiciary has secured legislative authorization for up to $20,000,000 in matching funds for a new courthouse, but stressed the legislature will want a firm county commitment before releasing the money. "We have worked with the Supreme Court and a budget committee of the judiciary to get approval for a $20,000,000 matching fund, to match, up to $20,000,000 from the county to build that new courthouse facility," Hochbeck said.
