The Journal | Friday, March 21, 2025
The Journal reports that the Jefferson County Commission has purchased a second building from American Public University at 330 N. George St. to consolidate court offices, aiming to enhance security and efficiency. This follows their prior acquisition of another APUS location at 393 N. Lawrence St. The county's existing facilities have been deemed inadequate, and with this new purchase for $6,952,000, officials believe they can create a better judicial environment. The decision, supported unanimously by the commission members, promises to streamline court operations and enhance public safety in Charles Town.
