Barlow Massick House restoration
Summary
The historic 1893 'Castle' was damaged by fire, and the town's insurance only covered $83,000 because the property was undervalued. The council chose the standard coverage option, bringing about a $1 million payout and flexibility to eventually house the Historical Society's museum.
