A contracting company with strong ties to Coal Country will buy the
former Stanton school and remodel it into a hotel for its workers and
the public.
Jeff Hammes, spokesman for Industrial Contractors
Inc., said the company’s chief executive officer gave the project a
green light Tuesday. ICI will move quickly to acquire the building by
Oct. 31 and start remodeling so the building is converted by spring, he
said.
The project is on a hurry-up track because “everything is lining up for everybody to have major outages,” in 2013, Hammes said.
The company — headquartered in Bismarck — has been a mainstay in plant construction and outage maintenance since the ’60s.
Stanton, ND, is about an hour's drive northwest of Bismarck.
