Garrett Jackson reported that he met with the first local contractor re: the restoration work that needs to be made to the Fairview log house. This contractor provided a written listing of logs which would need to be replaced along with an estimated hourly cost of $35/hour for him and his crew to do the work.  The contractor also indicated that the roof was in fairly good shape, but the house structure needed longer roof overhangs to better protect the logs from the weather. He went on to say that he could utilize logs that are already on the Fairview site or ones to which he has access and also reported that he and his crew could get the house winterized in 2-3 months. The contractor also indicated that the house structure was out of level about 2 1/2" and that he could utilize period windows which he already owns. The committee felt that prompt action needed to be taken and voted to get a written estimate from this contactor and one other.
