County government in Van Buren County will persevere through a Wednesday night fire that completely destroyed its county government building and nearly all of its contents.“It is almost unimaginable,” said Van Buren County Mayor Greg Wilson of the scope of the blaze that decimated the government building in Spencer late Wednesday night and into Thursday morning. “It is a total loss.” The administrative building, located at 500 College Street in Spencer, housed most county offices including offices of property assessor, trustee, election administrator, mayor, and the historical society.
