Rupe Building near 80% stabilization; donor to fund Theatre tuckpointing, manager says
Summary
At the May 13 work session, Manager Megan Haselden reported Bring Back Calumet's stabilization work on the Rupe Building is about 80% complete and a community donor will fund tuckpointing on the Theatre; the Rural Development grant only covers the Village Hall side.
Village Manager Megan Haselden told trustees on May 13 that Bring Back Calumet reported "stabilization work is about 80% complete" on the Rupe Building and that a community donor has offered funds to complete tuckpointing on the Theatre building. Haselden said the Rural Development grant the Village received covers only the Village Hall side, leaving the Theatre work to be funded separately.
Trustees received the status update as part of routine Manager's reports. Haselden also noted staff are planning a June workshop tied to an approved State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) training grant that will support outreach and restoration oversight. No formal action or funding vote for the Theatre tuckpointing was recorded during the session; trustees may refer to the DDA or donor proposals for next steps.
