Mental health seeks tax break from county
Franklin County Mental Health Clinic seeks a tax reduction on the Cedar House facility at 15th and Cedar after Ottawa Retirement Village donated the former nursing home. Officials weigh trimming the $70,167 in real taxes to cover remodeling costs, amid concerns about legality and impact on schools. The clinic plans partial demolition for parking and remodel the east end for clinic use, while county leaders discuss leasing the adjacent Alco building for extension and health departments with other agencies showing interest.
