Despite multiple surveys, community meetings and commissioned reports, Council has prioritized a different type of enhancement; an office building. With its lease set to expire in 18 months, its landlord in foreclosure, a distressed real estate market and low interest rates, Council, like many others, has the urge to buy property.
