Craig, Colorado will soon be home to a new courthouse.
The new Moffat County Courthouse is poised to open Sept. 29, according to a press release. Fourteenth Judicial District Chief Judge Michael O’Hara III is inviting county residents and the 14th Judicial District to join the judges, court and probation staff and more to see the new building.
“The construction of our beautiful new courthouse would not have been possible without [community] support,” O’Hara said in the release. “We are hosting this event to thank you and show you firsthand what your support built.”
O’Hara and Colorado Supreme Court Chief Justice Brian Boatright will be present to speak about the importance of the new courthouse, thank the community leaders who collaborated on the project and meet the public. Moffat County commissioners will also be speaking at the event.
Supreme Court Justice Melissa Hart, Colorado Court of Appeals Judge Lino Lipinsky de Orlov and 14th District judicial officers will also be in attendance.
The courthouse is located at 1198 W. Victory Way, Craig, Colorado. Comments are expected to begin at 1:15 p.m. Sept. 29 in Courtroom C. Tours and refreshments will also be offered at the event.
