Summary of Records

This series contains reports on the construction work for the town hall. The town acquired the vacant school and renovated it for use as a municipal and community building for Kingston. It is not clear for whom the reports were created. They may have been submitted to the Town Council or some outside entity involved with providing financial or other support for the project. The reports outline work done over a number of months to remodel the building, including excavation of a mechanical room under the building, framing of new walls, electrical wiring, roofing, insulation, and a septic system. One report notes use of the building for various community functions as the building became usable, but was not yet completed.
