The following is an update on the Pierrepont Veterans Monument project.
Due to the bricks of our military service personnel not adhering to the monument, our committee has sought out ways to keep the bricks on permanently. Many different ideas have been suggested and researched.
The best solution to date has come from the bricklayers union: for the brick to all be removed, cleaned and reset with a different mix than first used. Working with them we would supply all materials and they would provide the skilled labor. They had only one request of condition to move forward: put a roof over it.
