Municipal Courts Building costs
At a glance
- What: Resolution (2026-1018) calling on Allegheny County to partner on maintenance and capital costs while disposition of the building is discussed.
- Where it stands: Approved by voice vote with no opposition on October 20, 2026. Sponsor Coghill said the county has shown little interest, the building is about 30 years old with large repair costs ahead (HVAC, roof, electrical), and the city already pays hundreds of thousands a year. He wants the county to take ownership; he sees little appetite for a sale.
- Next: No county response yet; Coghill hopes for resolution within a year.
