From the meeting
At its September 2, 2026 meeting, the board heard that the Bishop Hill Heritage Association will restore the outside of the Dairy Building next spring. The work includes tearing off cement plaster, installing new bricks, fixing facias, and tuck pointing the chimney. The project will cost $146,000 and the bricks are being made in Manchester, England.
This is a funded restoration effort, so vendors tied to masonry, historic restoration, and materials supply should track the next execution steps.
