Mahoning County Courthouse renovation deadline extended

Tuesday, November 17, 2015

POLAND — The Mahoning County commissioners have extended the deadline for completion of the $6 million restoration of the 104-year-old county courthouse.

The deadline is being extended from April 30 to Sept. 30, 2016, for MS Consultants, architects and engineers, and for Murphy Contracting Co., both of Youngstown, at no extra cost to the county.

That’s because new custom-made terra cotta won’t be delivered until April from Boston Valley Terra Cotta of Orchard Park, N.Y., which is one of only two terra cotta makers in the country, said James Fortunato, county purchasing director.

The commissioners met this evening at Poland Village Hall.
