New Judicial Center Hits Snag
KENTUCKY...
Although demolition has begun at the site of the new Pike County Judicial Center in downtown Pikeville, ongoing litigation of some of the properties has created a snag in the progress of the project. The project is moving ahead, but not as quickly as hoped. It seems there's a few problems as the Combs family is disputing the appraisal of their property and attorney Larry Webster is seeking restitution due to his lease being terminated and reimbursement for moving expenses. It's feared the delay could cause bids, as well as the cost of construction materials, to go up ... creating a higher price tag for taxpayers.
