BONNERS FERRY — Crews have stabilized the Boundary County School District office and the building is set to reopen, school district officials said.

The office was closed to give crews a chance to investigate damage to the building after a vehicle collided with the building on Tuesday, April 4, hitting a bean outside the superintendent’s office.

BCSD Superintendent Jan Bayer told the Herald that the district’s insurance carrier ICRMP and a structural engineer examined the building on April 7.

Bayer said a beam was installed by BF Builders to stabilize the roof and structure for the moment..

“We will be returning to the district office, but my office will be moved to another part of the building,” she said. “Once a final determination is made on the expense to repair the building, then final decisions will be made.”

This is an ongoing story.
