Columbiana courtrooms undergoing renovation


LISBON — Renovations to the Columbiana County courthouse are coming to an end, although it might not look that way.

The two common pleas courtrooms on the second floor are still full of wood as workers complete the trim.

Amy Ondrejko, the court administrator overseeing the project, said last week the wood has been moved from one courtroom to the other, depending on what work was being done in a given space.

The project is expected to be finished on time and on budget. The work was expected to be completed by the end of July. Last-minute touches could take the work into early August.

Since renovations began, the commissioners agreed to replace all the windows in the building. That part of the project won’t be done until October. The two projects will cost a total of $3.5 million.
