Mercer DJ office headed to new location


MERCER, Pa. — Mercer County commissioners signed a contract with Sharon architecture and engineering firm HHSDR Inc.to design a new court facility for District Justice Larry Silvis, which is now located in Jackson Center.

The new office would be constructed on 5.8 acres on Pa. Route 208 North of Grove City and near the Pine Township municipal building.

Silvis’ current building is 30 years old and has inadequate space, a leaking roof and security problems, in addition to being inconveniently located halfway between Grove City and Sandy Lake, Commissioner Brian Beader said.
