It's an eyesoar! Whoever owns that building needs to do something about it. How much longer are we going to have to look at that thing. It's very embarassing.

This is a danger to cars going down the road & also the businesses along that side of the street as well. Let clean that up too, please!!!!

Just checking. Wouldn't it be great if when we have guests visit our Chamber of Commerce office they did not have to see all the wrecked/junk vehicles, a building that is falling down with broken windows, old papers, tossed furniture and old railroad cars? Monticello has so much to offer new companies and families wanting to move to this area. Wouldn't it be great if we all did our part to make Monticello as presentable as possible? Just checking!

I wonder how many more items like that are on the square tucked away in one of those old buildings. More needs to be done to preserve them for future generations.
