Revenue-producing solution found for courthouse glare problem

The Gazette reports that the state government is waiting for building designer AECOM to develop a solution to the intense glare problem created by the new courthouse in Rockville.
"This is our temporary fix," said Barthol L. Thomas, acting assistant secretary of facilities planning, design and construction for the state Department of General Services. "This will stop the reflection of the windows until we have a permanent solution. We are still awaiting the proposal for the permanent fix."
