FUTURE
OF THE PROVINCIAL COURT'S HOME TENUOUS
NATHAN JAHN WEEKENDER STAFF The provincial offences court in Kemptville will have to find a new home. At the Jan. 26 meeting of North Grenville Council, a resolution was passed that will see municipal staff alert court officials to the municipality's plan to proceed on any one of
a number of options to deal with the heritage building. The main issue at the moment, seemingly, is cost; According to Brown's report (dated Jan. 14) there is more than $40,000 in repairs and maintenance, including a new water heating unit (priced at $12,000), insulation in the attic and replacement of the roof (both clock in at $8,000). While Coun. Terry Butler said at the Jan.
19 committee of the whole meeting that he doesn't want the municipality do "do anything in haste"; but wait until everything is finalized for the library. "I don't want to give the courts the idea that we don't want them here," he said. Mayor Bill Gooch, who was vocal in his support to somehow drop the courthouse from the municipality's books, said that first considerations will be given to the provincial
offences court, but ultimately he would like North Grenville to make a move on selling the building. Council instructed Brown at its Jan. 26 meeting to proceed on plans to give the courts a six-month notice of termination of the lease.
