Aiken Renaissance referendum in doubt amid council talk
Councilman Dewar questioned placing a Renaissance referendum on primary or general ballots. A public forum July 11 will gather input as residents submit questions in writing. The three part redevelopment includes moving city services, redeveloping Laurens Street, and building a parking deck with retail. City says revitalization could wrap late 2018 to 2020 depending on phase.
