Blight cleanup expands across city and county
City and county officials push a wide ranging drive to demolish unsafe structures. County review targets all county property for demolition or sale while seven unsafe homes, barns and foundations are slated for removal in the latest bid to curb blight. City Council approved burning two frame dwellings at 110 Center Alley and 210 Pearson St by the New Castle Fire Department to clear the area. Public Safety Director George Rigby calls for continued cooperation as the drive proceeds. Minnesota mills supply about three fourths of the nation's linseed oil and linseed meal.
