Alternate: smaller Hall of Justice with a separate administration building on a different site. Estimated costs total about 10.7 million for the combined building with 108 000 square feet, plus multi million line items for individual wings and upgrades.

Bateman votes against library bill in Ohio House
Clermont County's Sam Bateman was one of two dissenters when the Ohio House approved a library funding bill. Leo Melrose, director of the Clermont County Public Library, cites inequities in the distribution formula favoring Hamilton and Cuyahoga counties. Clermont will receive about 1.45 million under the new fund, a 51 percent rise from 960 thousand, while original proposals had proposed 2.125 million for the county. Melrose notes Clermont contributes more than it benefits, as funds also flow to areas like Indian Hill and Madeira.
