Pictured is the architect’s final rendering of the new addition to the Hamilton County Government and Judicial Center. Traveling over the Conner Street bridge, motorists will get this view of the new west front of the building. Bids will be taken April 19 for the project estimated to cost about $23 million. It will include about 100,000 square feet of floor space and house additional courtrooms and likely the offices of the County Auditor, Treasurer, Assessor and Recorder. Assuming bids are within the $23 million budget, construction can begin this spring or early summer. No increase in taxes will be required, officials say.
