In the next several weeks residents may see some activities and changes at the Donald-Bannister property as contractors begin efforts to stabilize the farmhouse and protect against further deterioration. Improvements include the repair of a bowed wall, replacement of windows and roof repairs. In addition, a non-historic section of the barn will be removed and an ADA compliant restroom, a multi-purpose room and an outdoor gathering place will be constructed in accordance with the historical character of the property. Once complete, the new upgrades will also include parking and access for the general public.
