REPAIRS AT STATE CAPITOL COMPLETED

Repairs at the state capitol to fix water damage in the House have been completed. Officials say because the work was finished ahead of schedule, projects on the Senate side can be sped up. It’s not clear whether the early wrap for the water damage also means that costs would be cut from the 150-thousand-dollar price tag. The Senate now plans to install new lamps in all the light fixtures in the chamber before the lawmakers return March 18th.
