After almost three years, mostly due to dealing with insurance companies and engineers, the office has made a temporary move to 100 2nd Street.
The new office is located west of the courthouse in a one-story brick building that houses two offices. The IJ is at the north end of the building. Shearwood Family Chiropractic is on the south end.
The IJ will be there until the old office has been renovated and is completely safe.
“Our building woes have been going on longer than anticipated and we are happy to have found a place to land until the building’s issues are resolved,” Jeff Mayo, publisher, said. “Our staff has been great working through this issue and moving a newspaper office is no small task. Our morgue has more than 50 years of newspapers in it and preserving that history while continuing to record it just adds to the challenge.”
