Check here for weekly updates

In November of 2005 the residents of the town of St John passed a $500,000 construction bond issue for a new Library / City Hall building with an 80% majority. The planning and bid phase of the project took place between February 2006 and August 2007. In September 2007 a bid was accepted and contract signed with Western States Construction. Actual construction will begin by October 15. The project will be completed by April 2008. Weekly construction pictures will be posted on this website.
