Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

If a century homeowner is ACTUALLY in need of the home to come down, why can't the home/building be deconstructed and details sold for architectural salvage? The motel at the corner of East Liberty and East Main Streets was deconstructed by the Amish. I'm sure that ever piece of lumber will be reused. Architectural salvage companies are huge in cities across the United States. This would being back some many from the lose of the house. Of all the homes raised by the City of Ashland from the government grant, NONE had any salvage removed. What a waste, and it all went to the landfill which will hurt us in the future because our landfills are filling up. We will pay even more to have our trash taken way. The #1 most endangered historic property in Ashland County will be posted tomorrow.
