Courthouse secure (inmate) elevator replacement

A roughly 50-to-60-year-old secure elevator at the Vigo County Courthouse — the only way to move inmates between the jail and the courtroom without using the public elevator — needs a full rebuild estimated at $500,000 and 43-49 weeks. The funding request has moved between the county commissioners and county council twice without a decision.
