Stockton Courthouse Groundbreaking Ceremony. Trouble viewing this gallery? The Superior Court of San Joaquin County in downtown Stockton serves residents through three branch facilities, a Juvenile Justice Center in French Camp, and the downtown courthouse and nearby administrative annex. The Court shares the courthouse and the annex with the County. Constructed in 1. What is the plan for the new courthouse? The new downtown Stockton Courthouse will be located at 1.
East Weber Avenue, directly across the street from the current courthouse on historic Hunter Square Plaza. The new 1. 3- story facility will house 3. With all court services under one roof, the new courthouse will become a one- stop location for county residents. However, juvenile proceedings will remain at the Juvenile Justice Center in French Camp, which is also being remodeled and expanded. When completed, the new courthouse will eliminate severe overcrowding and provide adequate space for court services, administration, and increased security operations, with a secure sallyport for the transportation of in- custody detainees. It will be the tallest building in Stockton—an anchor in the City’s plan to establish a civic presence in the downtown area. The new facility’s expansive front plaza will have a large water feature and an 8.
Stockton’s past, just outside the entrance to the three- story glass lobby. The spire on the current Hunter Square fountain will be salvaged by the County and eventually incorporated into an extended plaza. Clad in natural stone, the building’s exterior will convey a sense of permanence and judicial dignity. The design for the new courthouse was recognized for excellence by the American Institute of Architects’ Academy of Architecture for Justice. Was renovation considered before the plan to build a new courthouse was decided on?
The current courthouse and nearby administrative annex are about half the size needed to accommodate the Court’s existing and future operating requirements. The current courthouse lacks adequate space to serve the needs of a growing population and is considered one of the state’s most decrepit and unsafe buildings. The two downtown facilities have many other functional, efficiency, and security challenges. Examples: Security screening is inadequate to handle the volume of people using the courthouse and unsafe for weapons screening. Due to the lack of space, the queue for screening often extends out into the parking lot and is problematic when a large number of jurors are summoned or during inclement weather.
Deputies must escort in- custody detainees in chains through public corridors, stairways, and elevators. Space for court staff is at a minimum and storage closets have been converted into offices. Additional problems with the court buildings include inadequate HVAC, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and security systems, insufficient administration space, the presence of asbestos, seismic issues, and outdated fire alarm and fire suppression systems. Who is the Judicial Council, and why are they managing this project? The Judicial Council is the policymaking body for the California court system, including the trial courts, known as “Superior Courts,” based in each county.
Among other responsibilities, the council—through its Capital Program office—is responsible for planning, acquisition, design, renovation, and construction of court facilities. The new courthouse will be owned by the judicial branch. For more information about the Judicial Council, refer to: Judicial Council. Judicial Council Staff. How has the local community had input regarding the courthouse project? The Project Advisory Group is the main source of ongoing community input to the project.
This broad- based group includes members from the the City and County, justice partners including the District Attorney’s office and the Public Defender’s office, the business community, and the Superior Court.

In addition, the California Environmental Quality Act process enabled the public to review and comment on the environmental report before it was finalized. What will happen to the current courthouse when the new courthouse is completed?
The County owns the current courthouse and administrative annex. It plans to demolish the two facilities, and given the funding, build an extensive plaza on the current site with eventual underground parking. TOPIC MENU- -click topic of your choice. CONSTRUCTIONWho is the construction manager at risk on the project?
In business for more than 1. Turner Construction has completed numerous public and private construction projects throughout the country and around the world. The company has won numerous awards, including the 2. Best Design Build Project of the Year, Austin VA Outpatient Clinic, from the Associated General Contractors of Texas, and the 2. Number One Contractor and Number One Green Contractor, from Engineering News- Record. How was the contractor selected?
Through its staff, the Judicial Council uses a construction manager at risk (CMAR) for delivery of projects such as the new Stockton Courthouse. The CMAR method entails a commitment to deliver the project within a guaranteed maximum price.
The competitive selection process factors in qualitative criteria, such as the firm’s experience, as well as the contractor’s fee. The CMAR is retained early in the project for preconstruction services. Following a competitive bid for all subcontractors and the approval to award, the CMAR becomes the general contractor for the project. Selection criteria for the project CMAR includes an evaluation of the firm’s plan for outreach to local subcontractors, ensuring that qualified local firms are fully aware of the bidding opportunity, process, and timeline. For this competitive selection, council staff conducted interviews with several qualified firms, from which Turner Construction was selected. What are the key milestones in building the courthouse?
A Request for Proposals is issued to find and secure the best qualified construction manager at risk (CMAR). The CMAR in turn issues a request for proposals to qualified construction professionals to build the construction team. The construction site is prepared, the foundation is poured, and the core of the building and protective shell are completed. The building is enclosed and infrastructure systems are completed. Interior fixtures and finishes are completed. The newly constructed building undergoes quality control checks and the major systems are tested.
The finished new building is inspected and issued a certificate of occupancy. When will the courthouse be completed and operational? Construction started in May 2. This schedule is subject to change.
