About Us |
|
The original building was built by Duffy-Knipe Post #459 American Legion in 1947. In February of 1962, it was given to the Emmet Lodge #533 Ancient Free and Accepted Masons. In July of 1985, the Masons approached the City Council about giving their building to the City for use as a community center. Thus, the Armstrong Community Center was born! In August of 2002, the City purchased the current building from Doug Nutt (previously known as the Armstrong Plaza) for $40,000. The building is 70’ x 120’ in which it is divided into three areas. The first area, City Hall, is 35’ x 33.7’; the second area, the front meeting room, is 25.5’ x 25.5’; and the third area, the main hall, is 55’ x 70’. In January of 2003, the Community Center Board borrowed $20,000 to replace the roof. The Community Center share of the option tax pays the 5-year note. Based on current option tax receipts, the note should be paid off in June of 2007. |
