Youngstown board finalizes agreement to relocate municipal court

YOUNGSTOWN — The last step to finalize an agreement to relocate the municipal court to the city hall annex came with the approval of a court settlement by the board of control.

The board voted 3-0 today to enter into an agreement with the court to spend up to $7,750,000, including $7.1 million to improve the city hall annex at 9 W. Front St., and make it the city courthouse by late 2017.

“All the agreements are done and now we have to build it,” said Law Director Martin Hume, a board of control member.
