More than three years after two torrential summer storms shuttered the Orange County Government Center in Goshen, state officials warn that further delays in relocating evacuated courts to a repaired and renovated building are “unacceptable.”

In May 2013, the state’s Court Facilities Capital Review Board approved the county’s plan to “fully restore” the lost court facilities. In May of this year, the county Legislature agreed to finance the $74 million construction project, including refurbishing the government center’s Division Three, where the state Supreme Court had been located.
