SECTION 4: SITE HISTORY The parcels were purchased by the city of North Augusta in June 2016 from the Estate of Starkey sharp Flyth Jr. for construction of a public safety facllity. In a "Building Assessment for North Augusta Public Safety Facility and Fire station #1 Relocation," prepared by Johnson, Laschober, & associates, P.C., there exist two structures on the properties; the "Caretakers House" built in 1903 and the "Horse Stable House", also built in 1903 and remodeled in 1970. The assessment describes these structures as former "support spaces" for the Palmetto Lodge, which stood on the adjacent parcel before it was destroyed by fire in 2008.This adjacent parcel is also owned by • the City of North Augusta and within the review of this sketch plan. The assessment concludes that both structures are severely deteriorated due to the environment and vandalism and offer no significant history or relevance.
