Henry Gets Cooled

A new chill­ing unit is on the way to the Henry County Cour­t­house.

County Com­mis­sion­ers approved the replace­ment unit at a total cost of $283,620, which includes equip­ment and instal­la­tion, say­ing it will make a sig­nif­i­cant improve­ment to the air con­di­tion­ing in the 130 year old build­ing.

That’s the good news. The bad news is that the project won’t get under­way until after the cur­rent cool­ing sea­son is done, with com­ple­tion expected in early Novem­ber.

Air con­di­tion­ing issues have plagued the cour­t­house for a long time.
