Linn County rules out Witwer sale for centralized elderly services
Linn County supervisors reject selling the Witwer Building to unite elderly services. The Witwer plan aimed to house the Council on Aging and Witwer Senior Center under one roof, but supervisors doubt affordability and relocation options. They note Witwer’s downtown location and current remodeling costs, with about 6,000 people relying on county human services.
