Courthouse Annex groundbreaking held

KINGMAN – The Mohave County Courthouse remodel ceremony was held on Wednesday afternoon (December 4, 2024.) Presiding Judge Steve Moss conducted the welcoming ceremony with additional remarks from Supervisor Jean Bishop, Judge Dave Huerta, and County Manager Sam Elters. Many dignitaries attended the event as well.

Concord Construction had the winning bid for the annex of $6,073,203 with a contingency of $911,067.  Also, furniture and other miscellaneous items add another $721,000.

Judge Steve Moss delivering remarks

In his remarks, Judge Moss said, “we’re finally making another step to giving Mohave County the judicial facilities that it needs.” More specifically, he added, “it will take care of our justice courts, give us some relief at the superior court level, and provide some office space for clerks.”

The annex is referred to as Part 2a of the original plan to construct a new courthouse and remodel both the annex and the historic courthouse. Mohave County Court Administrator Kip Anderson provided these additional thoughts, by saying, “we still need to complete some work on the historic courthouse, which includes some remodeling of the main floor and some updating of the historic courtroom on the 2nd floor.”
