Project overview

Since 2007, Vanir has been working with the Judicial Council of California (Judicial Council) to provide program, project, and construction management services for various courthouses throughout California. Our services range from estimating, condition assessments, scheduling, and staff augmentation to full project and construction management.

Four featured projects received LEED Silver certification and include:

  • Hanford Courthouse, Kings County: 10 courtrooms, four stories
  • Madera Courthouse, Madera County: 10 courtrooms, four stories
  • Porterville Courthouse, Tulare County: Nine courtrooms (replaced the three-courtroom Porterville Government Center)
  • Los Banos Courthouse, Merced County: Two courtrooms (replaced a one-courtroom facility)

Under the Judicial Council’s Capital Program, Vanir is the program manager for 34 new courthouses. Our team also provided construction management for four of these facilities, including the Menifee (85,010 SF) and Willows/Glenn County (15,000 SF renovation; over 26,000 SF expansion) courthouses, as well as project management for the Fort Ord (83,000 SF), San Luis Obispo (145,000 SF), and Santa Clarita (278,000 SF) courthouses.
