Village Hall to Close Thursday for Renovations

will be closed Thursday and Friday as village employees prepare to relocate for five months during renovations.

Beginning Monday, July 2, the village will operate out of the currently vacant , 410 McCarthy Road. Their offices are expected to remain there until shortly after Thanksgiving.

In November 2011, village officials agreed to move forward this summer with necessary maintenance to Village Hall and the adjoining former police station, 418 Main St. 

The building, constructed in the late 1890s, was last renovated in 1991. Although a recent assessment showed no major issues with plumbing, HVAC, roofing or overall structure, deferred maintenance could cost the village hundreds of thousands of dollars in the next three to five years, village officials said.

The current renovation plan calls for improvements to the lobby, roof, windows and exterior doors, bathrooms and conference room—creating the need for temporary office space.

In May, the village reached an intergovernmental agreement with to use Central School through Nov. 30.
