New Pike County Judicial Center Going Green
Pike County Judge Executive Wayne Rutherford says "Pike County is America's Energy Capital," and we have an obligation to see our atmosphere is not in danger. With that in mind, the new Pike County Judicial Center, which will be built in downtown Pikeville, is designed to be on the cutting edge of green technology. The building, which will be a version of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is being overseen by Steve Sherman, architect and project manager for the Lexington firm Sherman-Carter-Barnhart LLC. Sherman says the center will be a low-flow water building.
