Sangamon County leaders provide an update about the renovation of the county building that will provide much needed updates since the building was constructed in 1990 (January 2022).

The county board appointed two advisory committees to help with programming ideas for the newly renovated spaces including one focused on the new first floor atrium space and one focused on the newly configured second floor lobby area.

There have not been any major updates since the building was constructed in 1990.

The first floor atrium space will connect to the new transportation center and will provide easy access to many of the services that many Sangamon County residents need. The advisory committee that is exploring ideas for this space includes what type of art or statue should greet visitors to the county building.  

ATRIUM COMMITTEE

On the second floor of the county building there will be a new waiting area for Sangamon County residents to wait or gather before a scheduled meeting with the county board or another meeting. The advisory committee that is exploring programming ideas for this space is focusing on the gallery space, mural options and a program to display artifacts from Sangamon County.
