Barnes County Auditorium Memorial Hall Proposal
A proposed county funded memorial hall would cost about 50 000 a year for four years and be repaid by property taxes. Built and managed by the Board of County Commissioners, it aims to serve countywide needs with public access, while generating income from entertainments to cover upkeep. It would centralize exhibits for agriculture and rural youth clubs and attract major road entertainment without relocating residents to cities.
