Banning Justice Center Work Site 12-12-2013

Reports at http://banning-beaumont.patch.com Completion of the new Banning Justice Center was originally hoped for by Fall 2013, but it's now expected to open sometime in Spring 2014, according to the state Administrative Office of the Courts. A groundbreaking ceremony was staged in February 2012 and the authorized budget remains at $63.2 million. The finished courthouse on Ramsey Street will cover 68,399 square feet and house six courtrooms. "We're looking at the end of the first quarter of 2014," Gary Swanson, project manager for the AOC said Thursday during a tour of the construction site. "We have some wiggle room, but we don't to give a date. Things can change. It can take a couple weeks to get moved in, and up and running a hundred percent." Riverside County Superior Court Judge Jeff Prevost said Dec. 12 he's pleased with progress at the building site. "It's been a few months since I've been here and it's nice to see it coming along," Prevost said. "It's going to be a beautiful facility. "It's going to give us several more courtrooms we expect," Prevost said. "We should get more judges in the future and we'll be able to accommodate them. We'll be able to serve the community in a much better fashion."
