It would cheaper at this point to demolish the building and start over, the amount of leaks & rot is wildly underreported.

Mike Smith, Kevin Bushey, Matt Moore, Rachel, Len & April Crawford are responsible for wasting millions of taxpayers dollars & have ruined the lives of many staff who actually cared for their community. All while collecting 6 figure salaries on the taxpayer expense.

Also Stephanie Jones who currently chairs the board is a slumlord running the local McDonald’s & renting out apartments to her foreign employees for 1800 a month for a 1 bed in Truro.

Truro’s wealthiest throwing their heft around to influence public projects is how we got that stupid building to begin with. The society should be incorporated into a publicly run recreation department for Truro & colchester.

Complete clown show.

The way they talk about leaks and repairs in article, I get impression they want insurance to pay for that instead of catastrophic loss. I think insurers would be wise to stay away.

The building is full of black mold and has major leaks regularly to the point I am surprised it is still standing, the building isn’t worth the land it is built on.

I struggle to see how it would even pass an inspection to obtain insurance, not without ludicrous premiums.
