Seneca County to tear down old TB hospital after Brownfield grant frees funds
Summary
County staff reported demolition began on the old TB hospital south of town; commissioners said a Brownfield grant covered the project costs, freeing a previously reserved $100,000 and enabling removal to proceed immediately.
County staff reported that demolition of the old tuberculosis hospital south of town — the building located between the sheriff’s office and the agricultural center — began the morning of the meeting. Commissioners said a Brownfield grant covered demolition costs and freed a previously reserved $100,000, clearing the way to remove the long-vacant structure.
Officials said heavy equipment was brought onto the site and that demolition should proceed in short order. Commissioners credited the Brownfield grant and a local entity (FEBC, referenced in the meeting) for assistance and described the removal as a short-term project rather than one expected to require extended work. No additional appropriations were requested at the meeting, and staff said they would track timing and contractor activity.
