County staff estimate $17 million for Courthouse renovation
Summary
During the monthly budget update, staff presented a preliminary county-side estimate of $17 million for a Courthouse Renovation Project and discussed how the cost would affect the capital fund and upcoming budget decisions.
Susan Wildermuth, who presented the monthly budget update, told the Board of Allen County Commissioners that staff are using a preliminary county-side planning estimate of $17 million for the Courthouse Renovation Project. The estimate was raised during the capital fund review as commissioners examined current capital requests and available resources.
Commissioners discussed the potential scale of the project and its implications for the county's Capital Fund. Staff said the figure is a planning estimate and that further design and scope work will be required before a formal appropriation is proposed; the meeting record notes the figure was provided for budgeting purposes rather than as an approved expenditure. The board did not take a formal vote on funding during the session.
