Work began yesterday to remodel part of the maintenance building to be used as an office for the new property manager. The metal garage door was removed.
The contents were removed to be stored elsewhere.
The inside rotted walls were removed and the residuals of the old fire that nearly destroyed the original building shortly after it was built, could be seen. Notice the new studs that were attached next to the partially burned ones. All the blackened parts that can be seen were a result of the fire.
By late afternoon the new facade was taking shape with a door and windows. They hope to be nearly finished today. Jack Gibbs has a three man crew working on it.
The board is continuing to accept applications for the manager job and interview candidates. We have advertised in the Rockport Pilot and Herald. One candidate yesterday said she had worked in real estate for a former owner here(204), Shirley Shires.
