Algoma residents are voicing their displeasure over a planned move of many of their operations, including the library, to a former bank building. Late last month, Mayor Steve Lautenbach announced that the city entered a contract with Associated Bank to purchase its building at 208 Steele Street for $200,000 after the Algoma City Council unanimously approved it. City Administrator Matt Murphy said its current city hall and police department building, located at 416 Fremont Street, requires several upgrades and repairs to keep it viable, including $1 million for a new heating and cooling system. A tunnel connects the main city hall building with the library, which is located at 406 Fremont Street. Murphy added that investing in a building like that did not make sense.
