The planned Sangamon County courthouse renovation would feature a staircase and first-floor access to offices. The Sangamon County courthouse is scheduled for a $16.7 million makeover that would transform the first and second floors and move the coroner s office into its own building on Dirksen Parkway. The county board on Monday approved $278,000 for design work on the project, with construction expected to begin in November and conclude in the spring of 2023. A planned entrance atrium with a staircase leading to an upper level would replace cramped quarters at the current entrance, where courthouse visitors go through metal detectors no one envisioned when the building was constructed 30 years ago.
