SALT LAKE CITY -- After more than a decade of work, the building permit for a new $185-million U.S. District Courthouse in Salt Lake City has been secured.
Thursday, the House passed the authorization resolution, which is the legislative approval needed for construction of the courthouse to begin.
The new district courthouse will sit west of the Frank E. Moss Courthouse and house tenants, including the U.S. Marshals Service, and the 10th Circuit Branch Library.
Its construction is expected to bring 700 new jobs to Utah over the next three years.
