CLAREMORE, Oklahoma -- Oklahoma Lieutenant Governor Todd Lamb helped break ground on a new Rogers County courthouse at Patti Page Boulevard and Missouri Avenue in Claremore Wednesday.

Voter-approved bond money is paying for the new and long-awaited facility, which should be finished late next year.

The old courthouse, built in the 1930's, will ultimately be torn down to make way for a parking lot.
