In a recent government meeting, officials discussed the successful sale of a property to Elm City, an axe-throwing company, for $80,000. The property, previously appraised at $90,000, will facilitate the relocation of a brush pit to a more accessible area on Euclid Street, enhancing operational efficiency for Elm City.
The decision to sell the property was met with positive feedback from the company’s partners, who expressed gratitude for the council's support in the transaction. They plan to make improvements to the facility and expand their operations, which is expected to create new jobs in the community.
Additionally, the sale will have a positive impact on local tax revenues, contributing approximately $23,100 to the tax rolls. This influx of funds will benefit various local entities, including schools, the park district, and the library, marking a significant win for the community.
Overall, the meeting highlighted the collaborative efforts between the city and local businesses, showcasing a commitment to economic development and community enhancement.
