Rock Island County's new administrator has his work cut out for him. Dave Ross has been working to cut costs and find a way to pay for expanding the Justice Center. That's because the courthouse is in sorry shape after years of neglect.

The pace should pick up even more now that a Henry County judge has ruled that the county's Public Building Commission can proceed with the plan.

On today's WVIK News Focus, Michelle O'Neill spends a few minutes talking with County Administrator, Dave Ross. He's set to meet privately with the board tomorrow.
