Explanation
(This amendment provides $50,000 the first year from the general fund to the Town of Louisa and the Louisa Downtown Development Corporation, Inc., to restore the historic 1907 Louisa High School and re-use the facility as the Louisa Town Hall and Art Center. Funding will be used for Phase 2 construction, which includes the Art Gallery, which will serve as an entrance to the overall building. Following the completion of this joint venture, the building will house the town's business offices, meeting chambers, and an Art Center that includes a theater, art gallery, and art education space. This project is part of a plan to revitalize the downtown area, enrich the community, and enhance the livelihoods of local artists.)
