RDC hears update on shell building; contractor plans to resume work in late January
Summary
Staff and Runnebom representatives told the Lebanon Redevelopment Commission that work on the city’s shell building stalled in 2024 after a potential buyer sought modifications; the contractor plans to return to site by late January with a target for full completion by April weather permitting.
The Lebanon Redevelopment Commission received an update on the city-owned shell building project and a timeline for restarting construction.
Ben Bontrager (staff member) summarized events: the prime contractor, Runnebom, paused on-site work in 2024 while the city negotiated with a potential buyer that had requested modifications.

Bontrager said Runnebom acknowledged delays and has made the project a priority.
