Medina County to move offices into 60 Public Square
Medina County officials discuss relocating offices to 60 Public Square to free space at the courthouse and accommodate expansion. Forrest Thompson says the Medina County Prosecutor’s Office needs more room for 33 staff and divisions including child support and civil, with plans to house the grand jury. Commissioner Hutson suggests a temporary move of another office, possibly the Office of Dispute Resolution, to aid interim space use until the courthouse is completed in 2022.
