Assessment finds courthouse annex building not damaged

DANVILLE – After removing a section of the deteriorating facade on the Vermilion County Courthouse Annex, engineers found no excessive damage to the building itself, according to one county official.

Vermilion County Board member John Dreher told the county board during its regular meeting Tuesday night that a 7-foot-by-10-foot section of the facade was removed this week and an initial investigation started into what has caused recent structural problems with the stucco covering on the annex at 6 N. Vermilion St. in downtown Danville.
