The buildings passed to the Highland Council on local government reorganisation in 1996. In 2016 Highland Council renovated and extended Kingussie Courthouse to become its main offices in the town, closing the former offices at Kingussie railway station and another council building at 100 High Street.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Rammage |first1=Tom |title=Kingussie Courthouse is born again! |url=https://www.strathspey-herald.co.uk/news/kingussie-courthouse-is-born-again-147600/ |access-date=26 August 2024 |work=Strathspey and Badenoch Herald |date=7 September 2016}}</ref> The Highland Council's Badenoch and Strathspey area committee meets at both Kingussie Courthouse and Grantown-on-Spey Town House.<ref name=areacommittee>{{cite web |title=Badenoch and Strathspey Area Committee: Agendas, reports and minutes |url=https://www.strathspey-herald.co.uk/news/kingussie-courthouse-is-born-again-147600/ |website=The Highland Council |access-date=26 August 2024}}</ref>
