(KLZA)-- Pawnee City Council members heard updates and approved payment for some work done to the Cornerstone Building on Main Street in Pawnee City when they met last week.
The Council approved payment of more than $68,500 to AHRS Construction for general work done and nearly $55-thousand for demolition and masonry restoration to the building. The City matching portion for the work was just over $13,700.
Once the renovation work got underway, it was discovered the building was in worse condition than thought.
City Clerk Tammy Curtis said the three layers of brick have been removed and wood forms are being constructed. Instead of three layers of bricks, the outside will have one-layer of bricks over the wood framing which will allow for better insulation of the building.
