Ellwood City to take control of City Centre Emporium
Ellwood City Borough Council moved to take charge of the City Centre Emporium from the Economic Development Authority after bids proved too low. Authority chairman Dom Viccari and members Sue Colavecchia Larry Cole and Rikki Blank voted yes with others absent. The building, housing 12 retailers, had rents set in 1987 to aid small business, but leaking roof and debt concerns prompted Council to weigh acquisition to restore tax rolls. Lloyd Development bid 44,444 and Joseph Mazzani bid 40,000. Cole urged rejection to prevent further loss and secure private ownership.
