purchased for $800. He
estimated costs will be $40,000.

Community Development
Director Gene White said he is
elated that so many citizens are
taking advantage of the oppor-
tunity to purchase good property
in the downtown area for
business development and at a
price they can afford. Only one
bid is required but the person
making the bid must be ready to
begin construction. Small
businesses are taking the oppor-
tunity, said White, to build now
and offset high interest costs.
White said the parcels would
be conveyed to the new owners
as soon as the legal adver-
tisements are published.
