Today marks the first time Denton County commissioners have held a meeting in the new county administrative courthouse - and a crowd of veterans joined them for the special occasion.
Commissioners recognized the guests for Veterans Day, then voted to make November 'County Veterans Recognition Month'.
"I want to thank each and every one of those individuals who helped preserve out liberty and our way of American life," said County Judge Andy Eads.
As for the new Courthouse, it’s four stories, 96,000 square feet and houses a dozen county departments that were previously scattered across multiple different buildings. It’s located on a ten-acre campus with walking paths, memorials to police and fire, and an amphitheater.
