(ODON) - The Daviess County commissioners voted to purchase the Old National Bank Building on Main Street in downtown Washington.
According to the Washington Herald, the commissioners offered to bid $90,000 for the building.
Commissioner Michael Taylor says the building will be used to end the overcrowding situation at the courthouse.
The downtown building became available after Old National decided to consolidate its operations in Washington. The bank moved the local business operations at 204 E. Main St. to its location on Southeast 21st Street, leaving a large vacancy on Main Street. Filling that hole played a part in the commissioners' decision.
