The site of the new Lake Isabella Village Hall doesn't look like an extra sand trap on The Pines, as it did a month ago.
Workers from JBS contracting have put up the shell of the new building, on Clubhouse Drive next to the the golf course. Among other features, the village hall will have much of its energy needs met by a geothermal heating and cooling system, installed in conjunction with Homeworks Tri-County Electric Cooperative.
The new building will provide office, meeting and storage space for the one-time resort community, now a growing bedroom community in western Isabella County.
