Owners of buildings considered to be an eyesore around the town square inWoodbury will be getting notices to get their building compliant to city
ordinances or risk being fined due to actions granted by the town of
Woodbury Aldermen. Notices will be sent over the next couple of days to
the owner of the former City Hall Building, Terry Haynes Plumbing, and to
the bank that is in charge of the foreclosure of the building that housed
an apartment and former video store on the square. It was decided to have
Mr. Brent Rowland inspect the former City Hall building as there are two
exterior walls which are thought to be in poor shape to the point to where
they could collapse. There is a possibility that the building could be
classified as condemned.
