Historic Courthouse furniture storage costs

Summary

The county keeps paying up to $25,000 a year to store courthouse furniture off-site during renovation litigation, and the contract extension passed 4-1. Supervisor Neely pushed to move the furniture into offices now rather than 'paying twice,' but staff said climate control and warranty protection justify the storage.
