County staff gave an update on the Veterans Center project during the Jan. 16 meeting. “We were able to get the roof stabilized. We’re putting the new roof on, new HVAC units and getting all that done. And we’ll start the process of demolishing the interior, preparing that for building,” Anthony Trevina said.
