City considers developer option for derelict property
Continued from page 2 said they're open to giving the property to a developer who commits to a project. The question of who pays for demolition has not been settled. If raw land makes more sense than using the historic structure, Miller said that's OK with him. This ol boy is for taking the bulldozer to it. I'm tired of it. The thing's leaking, we're spending a lot of money and it's making us look stupid.
