SCOPE OF WORK
Activity Narrative
The Town Hall building was constructed in 1912 as the Fort Bragg Commercial Bank building. Over the years, the building has been used as a County Court House and Sheriff’s Office. The City acquired the building in 1989 after it was damaged in the September 1987 fires. In 1990, the City completed fire damage repairs and remodeled Town Hall for use as a meeting and public gathering venue. Town Hall wall coverings and window coverings were updated in 1992. In 2009, the exterior of the building was painted and the parapets were replaced. In 2011, Town Hall lights were retrofitted as part of a citywide energy efficiency project. In 2014, improvements were made to the meeting hall including sound and video for public meetings, energy efficiency and lighting at the Council dais, flooring and window coverings, and interior paint.
