Ground was broken on Monday for a new courthouse in Sanpete County, which is designed to fix security issues in the current building built in 1935.
MANTI — In rural communities, a courthouse is very important, but Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said people who live in Salt Lake City don't realize that — to them, a courthouse is where bad people end up.
Sixth Judicial District Court judges spend about 25% of their time in the car traveling to different courthouses in the largest judicial district in the state, which stretches from Sanpete County all the way to the Utah-Arizona border, the court's website says. "They were able to get it done, and I'm so proud of them. They deserve all the accolades for their great work," he said.
Utah Supreme Court Chief Justice Matthew Durrant said he met with the judges in the 6th District Court just before the groundbreaking and said they were talented and committed. He said getting the courthouse to this point was not without political cost, thanked legislators and the governor for helping make the courthouse a reality, and said the new courthouse is "extremely important."
He said people come to courts with their most precious and painful problems, and people can expect fair judges. The Utah Division of Facilities Construction and Management ranked the Manti Courthouse as the highest replacement need for public safety in the state, according to a presentation created for the 2022 Utah Legislature. Here are a few of the security concerns:
