SHERBURNE – Construction has begun on the Sherburne Village Department of Public Works and Electric facility at 13-27 Classic St.

The $1.4 million building project will put both municipal services under one roof and open up additional lots at the site for future business development, said Mayor Bill Acee at a press conference Friday morning.

The new building will house two vehicles and a chipper that are presently stored outside, plus much of the road maintenance materials currently stored in the pole yard. It will have restrooms, a training room and facilities to house other line crews.
