Courthouse Expansion Leads to Expanded Service
The Clerk & Comptroller’s branch office in the South County Courthouse has moved into a bigger, better and brand new section of the facility. On July 7, the office opened inside the newly constructed 75,000 sq. ft. portion of the courthouse adjacent to the existing building at 200 W. Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach, Fla.
“The expansion will help us achieve our goal of providing world-class customer service,” said Sharon Bock, Clerk & Comptroller of Palm Beach County. “The Clerk’s facilities now have seating for 120 customers and nine more windows to allow us to serve customers more quickly and efficiently.” It also includes an enhanced Self Service Center with a Legal Aid attorney and a new “2-1-1” phone that provides access to additional information, referrals, counseling and more.
Judicial, magistrate, state attorney and public defender offices also relocated to the new division. Some of those offices will move back into the existing facility after it undergoes approximately eight months of renovation.
