County Office Building Repainting Job Finished
Winchester Hall has just received a facelift as a three coat white paint job covers its fluted columns and granite corner stone. County Commissioners awarded the contract to Charles Staley who has faced public interference during the week long project. An elderly man was found in the vestibule and left a grease mark on two walls while youths disrupted fresh paint on the iron fence. Barriers failed to stop crowds from trampling porches and circling the columns. Residents working in the twin buildings were told to enter via basements during processing. Public warnings largely went unheeded as the effort continued amid ongoing vandalism and noncompliance.
