Q: Why can't the octagonal building be left where it is and have done the same projects that are planned at the Veterans Park? A: After years of discussing the issue of what to do with the historic octagonal building, Wexford County let the public know last May that demolition was a real option. In light of the county's finances and the real possibility that revenues from the state will be significantly less than normal, the county didn't have the money to fix it. While there have been numerous people in the community who have come together to make the historic structure a viable building, they were unable to come up with the money needed.
