Prospective Buyers interested in Hometown Building

A few prospective buyers have expressed interest in the former Hometown Food Store building in downtown Seneca. During their executive session of the regular monthly meeting, the Seneca City Council was told by City Administrator Scott Moulder that interest is growing for the building, explains Mayor Dan Alexander. “The Hometown building we have had some interest in that piece of property from several different people. So, Mr. Moulder actually in executive session let the council know some of the interest from different people. So, what we are hoping is we will continue to move forward to try to find a good tenant for that building, if someone wants to buy it or maybe some other arrangements might be made. We are looking at all aspects of that trying to bring somebody into the downtown area in that building would help generate traffic and bring people to town. So, the Hometown building is sort of a work in progress right now and we are trying to recruit some people in town and looking at what they would like to bring to see if that would be a good fit.” The mayor hopes to make an announcement about the building in the near future.
