Join on Oct 7th (Wed) 6pm to hear a presentation of the Enginneering report for the Old Mill
On Oct 7th (Wed) at 6pm, the Cottonwood Heights Planning Commission will be briefed by Dunn Associates the engineering assessment of the Old Mill. It appears that Governmennt or philantrophic support will be needed to save the Old Mill given the high cost to stabilize the structure.
We urge you to come make a public speech to the Commission about the need to save the Old Mill and your vision for adaptive reuse. Do come before 6pm to register as a public speaker. Your participation would help persuade the state government or foundations to come in to help.
