Mode House restoration halted pending funds; council approves small transfer
Summary
Work on the Mode House has stopped after funds were depleted. Council confirmed a prior $1,587 payment to Viking Masonry and approved a $50 transfer from General to Historical to cover Viking Masonry.
Council members said work on the Mode House has paused because available funds have been depleted. The Treasurer's report noted that "$1,587.00 to pay Viking masonry was approved at the last meeting" and President Hines stated that "Work has stopped at the Mode House until more funding comes in." The council approved a $50 transfer from the General Fund to the Historical account to cover Viking Masonry; the motion was made by VP Sherman, seconded by Council member Hines and passed unanimously.
Historical Committee members discussed outreach and grant work. Mr. Graves reported attending a CCHPS breakfast and said family records show the name Mode on historic parchments tied to a West Brandywine Township property; he will obtain a copy for the committee. The Historical Committee will meet April 7 at 7:30 p.m. to discuss next steps and fundraising.
