Media Boro Council to Make Decision on Sale of 1 W. State St. (Brodeur's)



It's been announced that a decision of sale will be made on 1 W. State St. Thursday, July 8th at the Borough Council Workshop meeting.  We'll forward the time and location once it's officially posted by the borough.


As a candiate for borough council, I've talked to residents and businesses this week who like the idea of restoring the building proposed by the lower bid,  but feel the higher bid which will allow for a restaurant is the correct decision.  I agree, not only because it's a higher bid, but it will add to the vibrancy of the location, while retaining the character of the building.

In addition, the lower bid presented by Bluestone Development will be dependent on grants for financing, thus creating a potentially risky situation for the borough.
