The Jefferson County Commission has successfully completed the acquisition of two buildings for a new government and judicial complex in Charles Town, aiming to improve public access and services within the community. The former American Public University System locations will be renovated, including a new judicial facility on North George Street, for a total investment of $23.5 million. With the closing occurring ahead of the original schedule, the Commission anticipates hosting meetings in the new space by summer's end. This development comes as part of a broader effort to modernize the county's infrastructure and enhance service delivery, as reported by the West Virginia Press Association.
