Don’t worry, says mayor; columns will be replaced on City Hall

Responding to a flood of phone calls about the columns at City Hall, Demopolis Mayor Woody Collins Thursday stressed the brick columns are not permanent.

“The public seems to think I have very poor taste,” he joked during the City Council meeting.

City Hall is undergoing minor renovations. The temporary columns will be replaced with wider ones that will be painted white, Collins assured the public.
