GUILDHALL, Vt. (WCAX) – A proposal to update the Essex County Courthouse is on the table.
In January 2024, we told you the historic building hasn’t had any upgrades since 1993.
Now, the Vermont Supreme Court has given the ok to a $3 million dollar project.
Town records show it would create an addition to improve accessibility, safety and security for courthouse visitors and staff.
There is concern from some that any upgrades would effect the historic charm of the building. There is concern from some that any upgrades would effect the historic charm of the building.
