The Norfolk County Facilities Maintenance Department is responsible for the management of all County-owned buildings. These include five District Courthouses: Brookline, Dedham, Quincy, Stoughton, and Wrentham; and the Registry of Deeds, the Norfolk Superior Court, and the County Administrative Office buildings. Overall these facilities include approximately eighteen acres of land and two hundred thousand square feet of interior floor space. The courthouse facilities are owned by the County subject to rental agreements with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for use by the Norfolk County Trial Courts, which are agencies of the state.
The Legislature's approval of the Court Bond bill to upgrade specific air quality issues and handicap accessibility in our Courthouses has been helpful. We have been working with the State's Division of Capital Asset Management, which oversees the design and construction of these improvements.
Wrentham District Courthouse improvements have been completed. The building received a new elevator, handicap ramp, HVAC in the main and 2nd session courtrooms, new electrical service, lighting and ceilings. Renovations have also been completed at Stoughton District Courthouse and Dedham District Courthouse. Improvements to Norfolk Superior Courthouse and Brookline District Courthouse are in progress. It is the goal of our Department to render quality services and workmanship for the County of Norfolk.
