The process to start demolishing the building that formerly housed the Evil Czech restaurant in Culver will start today.
The building at 530 S. Ohio Street was found to be asbestos free while several organizations and town officials have gathered some equipment from the building that may still be of use somewhere else.
The Culver Town Council members approved the purchase of that property in 2019 with the hopes of turning the building into something useful for the town, but Councilman Rich West commented during a previous meeting that a preliminary architectural study done on the building found renovation costs to be much more than the town was willing to spend.
The council members previously voted to demolish the building at a cost not to exceed $10,000. The project is expected to be done in-house by the Utility Department.
