The City of Colonial Heights has embarked on the largest single public works project in its history - a new municipal courts facility at 231 Chesterfield Avenue (the former site of the CH Baptist Church).

In the planning stages for over a decade, the project began in earnest earlier this year with the demolition of the city-owned building on the site; with the design and construction of the new courthouse now continuing on schedule.

While the City Council will make all final decisions relating to the courthouse and development of the adjacent city-owned property, the Council has also engaged a wide range of citizens and professionals to help guide the project.

Development Plans and Building Schematics have been approved by the City Council.  The current schedule calls for groundbreaking in early 2012 – with the hope that the new courthouse will be ready to open in the summer of 2013.
