Aiken Renaissance contract expires without new deal
Public records show a second option agreement tied to the Aiken Renaissance set to expire March 28 2016 unless extended. The city paid 5000 to the Anderson family for option rights on parcels including Newberry Hall Warneke Cleaners Playoffs Sports Bar and a vacant lot with a purchase price of 2.3 million at closing. City Council met in executive session to discuss the potential sale but took no votes and mayor Rick Osbon recused himself due to a conflict with Osbon Cleaners, a competitor of Warneke Cleaners.
