On December 10, 2011 the Town Officials hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to officially dedicate the new home for the Town's Municipal Building. The Town Hall renovation project was a major undertaking to convert the Bank of Delmarva building into a facility with a floor plan that would accommodate our governmental needs. One significant change that occurred as part of the remodeling project was the relocation of the building entrance to the west side of the structure facing Pennsylvania Avenue. The Town received grant funds from Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant which provided many high-tech features to ensure our new facility is energy efficient. This project was funded by local and federal funds. |
