York Institute Stabilization and Remediation CompletedThe remediation and stabilization phases of the historic York Agricultural Institute preservation
initiative is complete. Expenditures for these activities alone have totaled approximately $1 million.Having been slated for demolition by the State of Tennessee, which had owned the former school
building built through the efforts of World War I hero, Sgt. Alvin C. York, the deserted facility wasacquired by the nonprofit Sgt. York Patriotic Foundation (SYPF) in 2008. Extensive brickwork and aprotective roof membrane covering the entire building are two of the measures that will keep thebuilding safe from the elements and animals. The SYPF voluntarily paid for repair of the pavementsurrounding the building, ensuring safety of school personnel, students and visitors.
The SYPF, which owns the building, has also paid engineering, contracting, permitting and otherassociated fees and invoices. The State of Tennessee agreed to reimburse the Foundation up to$500,000, but there are numerous related expenditures that were necessary to complete the first twophases of saving the school that are not eligible for reimbursement.
Further, the SYPF has become responsible for paying monthly telephone bills associated with thefire alarm system and monthly electric bills for powering an exhaust fan system that will prevent thebuild up of moisture while the building is empty awaiting further rehabilitation and final use.
Though the Sgt. York Patriotic Foundation has been fortunate enough to attract money from
several large donors and some local contributors, much more is needed to return the centerpiece ofSgt. Alvin C. Yorks legacy to the condition it deserves. Few Federal and State dollars are available, andthe project is expected to proceed primarily because private foundations and individuals commit toseeing the building saved.
