Right Girl: Use ‘Courthouse’ Carefully
Right Girl (re: County workers not happyhappy ): “It is the County building in total and not just the courthouse. The courthouse is just one wing of the County building. So please do not lump everyone as County “court” employees.”
DFO: “I’ve used Kootenai County Courthouse to mean entire county government on those grounds for almost 30 years. The commissioners may work in the county administrative building but they’re part of the Kootenai County Courthouse complex.”
Right Girl: “I understand you have used for 30 years it but it is an old and archaic term that harkens back to the Mayberry days. No one uses that term anymore, especially at the County Administrative Building. Just wanted to point that out.”
Question: What do you mean when you refer to the “Kootenai County Courthouse”?
