(Sherburne, NY \u2013 June 2015) Save The Sherburne Inn Restoration Project, Inc. (SSIRP) announced this week that Rich & Gardner Construction Company of Syracuse has been hired as the general contractor for Phase 1 restoration of The Sherburne Inn, which will include exterior work on the 98-year-old building. Work is expected to begin within 30 days and will include brick pointing and general masonry, window restoration, porch deck and porch roof work, trim painting, and column restoration.<\/p>\n

Rich & Gardner, which counts among its employees Sherburne-area residents, was one of several companies that submitted bids. Bids were opened and reviewed at The Sherburne Inn on May 20.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe decision, which came down to two companies, was challenging,\u201d SSIRP Board President Kathleen Yasas said: \u201cBoth companies had excellent reputations and submitted great bids, but at the end of the day we had to look at cost and a connection to local residents and subcontractors. Rich & Gardner, the board decided, was the right firm for this phase of the project.\u201d Per New York State grant guidelines, SSIRP was required to wait for state approval of Rich & Gardner before making an official announcement.<\/p>\n

Conceptualized as an economic driver for Sherburne and for the surrounding area, SSIRP plans to reopen The Inn with sleeping rooms, event space, conference space, a farm-to-table restaurant and bar, a tavern, retail space, and office space. Temporary and permanent part- and full-time jobs will be created both during the restoration and after The Inn has been reopened.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a long road filled with many details,\u201d Yasas said. \u201cWe\u2019re delighted that work is finally beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n
