| I think several of us put our $0.02 worth in all over the place. Just cause it's none of our business hasn't stopped us yet, has it?

The cost is estimated at about $1 million. Do you think this would be a wise use of taxpayers' money?
Any further info on this subject?

| Yes, the town's building committee is reviewing the full set of architectural prints and, after giving the architect their final feedback, they hope to put the project out to bid in a few weeks. They hope to award the bid by early May.

| I wonder how the bids are going to come in. I understand building costs have risen dramatically, and while I'm in favor of Oak Ridge's town hall, I hope the cost of the building will be what was originally proposed (wasn't it something like $1.25 M, Patti? As I remember it, that doesn't include furnishings, etc.)

| You are correct on that estimated price, Sandra, and also on the fact that furniture and technology will be in addition to the approximate $1.25 million.

What is the estimated completion date?
PS - Yes, I'm really interested in the above question, but this will also get a posting showing back in the Oak Ridge Forum. It looked kindof empty after I moved the "Lost Pet's topic.

Thanks, Steve. I wondered what happened here.
The building is supposed to be completed in February.

| Okay, here's a question I have. Why is there a wall with a window in it at the town hall site? Is that something the builder or architect came up with, so you can "look through the window" and see the progress on the building? Or does it serve some purpose?

| Well, S. Smith! It doesn't look like anyone's gonna answer your question! Maybe this is yet another for the NW Observer team to tackle! Sorry that I, Macca, P.I., wasn't able to help you out! I haven't even ridden by there to check it out yet! Maybe sometime when I'm out at Lowes Foods I'll remember to swing by there instead of just traveling back and forth on 68! ♥♥♥

| I have wondered what that thing is too. It looks stupid. If macca PI can't find out, I hope the NWO will report on it.

I think it was the NWO that asked the question in the first place a couple of postings up.
Geez, I thought we had a better bunch of sleuths on this forum, searching out critical issues like this one. Ho Hum.

| Well, inquiring minds wanted to know.... I rode by there the other day just to see what y'all were talking about. I can see why you were so curious about it.... "A window to the site..." Did everybody see what the real reason is that it's there???♥♥♥
