CUMMING — A crowd of community leaders, construction workers and elected officials gathered Tuesday morning to officially celebrate the “topping out” of the new Forsyth County courthouse and jail facilities. The structures, along with two large parking decks, are being built in downtown Cumming to replace smaller, decades-old facilities. Funded by 1-cent sales tax revenue, the $100 million facilities are scheduled to open by mid-2015.
