After the barn was destroyed, the city’s Parks, Recreation & Culture Division published a community wide survey asking Beavercreek residents if the city should rebuild a replica of the barn or consider other options.
The results confirmed the community wanted to see the barn rebuilt, according to the release.
Jagger Construction will tear down the remaining pieces and tear out concrete in order to re-pour the barn’s foundation this fall.
