The historic Harriman Temperance building was the focus in the City of Harriman’s council agenda Tuesday. Repairs of the old structure downtown, a landmark for the city, is aging and in desperate need of major repairs. Mayor Wayne Best wants to repair the building and get it restored but the cost is an estimated $100,000.00, and the city budget had an estimated 50k in funds for the work. Mayor Best wanted the council to take a couple of more weeks to make a decision and he will get with the city treasurer and see if any extra money is available. In the meantime the council did appoint Jess Rittenhouse to the Temperance Building committee during Tuesday’s meeting .
