The local court system is hosting a dedication ceremony Oct. 10 for the recently completed courthouse.
The San Benito County this week announced the ceremony for 3 p.m. Oct. 10. The San Benito County Courthouse is located along Fourth Street at the Monterey Street intersection, at the site of the old Fremont School.
The $33 million courthouse, paid for by the state, is roughly 42,000 square feet and opened in March. It contains three courtrooms, one for criminal and two for civil cases, and a jury deliberating room that will eventually be converted into another courtroom. The entire building is retrofitted with energy-efficient materials and cost-saving measures.
