Ceremony to start Davis County courthouse work

An official groundbreaking ceremony for the $19.6 million Davis County courthouse campus renovation has been set for 11 a.m. Tuesday at 28 E. State St. The renovation consists of razing four county buildings near the Memorial Courthouse and building a three-story Davis County administrative offices building, a new main library and a children's justice center. The construction work by Wadman Corporation, with architect design by Blalock & Partners, is scheduled to take 22 months, county officials say. Ogden Standard-Examiner
