Parnell Draws Up Plans for New City Hall

Parnell has been in the process of drawing up plans for the new City Hall that will be built after the old one is torn down. It will be built on the site of the old one and will be a similar color to the Fire Department building. It will house 41 people and will be used for meetings and to store records. All of the old records have been removed from the old building. The city received some good news when the DNR inspected the building and found no asbestos. The building had been cleaned of asbestos before the Post Office moved in there many years ago. The city is hoping to have the building demolished by April and is in the process of looking for a contractor who will demolish the old building. The city had sought to do so through grant money before, but the bids to do it came in well over the estimates.
