NEW SENECA DEVELOPMENT ARM ASSURED OF 1ST YEAR FUNDS

In its infancy, a new development arm of Seneca government will have $200 thousand to work with. The result of city council action last night means that money can be doled out over the next 11 months by the new Seneca Improvement Corporation to those property owners who successfully meet Seneca’s requirements for assistance to spruce up their buildings, as part of the re-vitalization of the core commercial district downtown. Property owners may apply at City Hall as soon as August 1, the morning after a public meeting to further explain the city’s new commercial building improvement program.
