City Due To Buy

Eyesore Tonight

Oneonta Common Council is scheduled to vote this evening on buying the former Oneonta Ford building at Chestnut and Market streets for $425,000, pending final authorization of a $478,000 grant from the Empire State Development Corp. The state earmarked the money for demolition of the existing building and preparation of the site for development. This would end four years of negotiations with the Twelve Tribes, which also owns the Yellow Deli across the street. The site was intended for a “food hub” building, but it’s unclear what the status of that project is today. Common Council convenes at 7 p.m. at City Hall. (AllOTSEGO.com photo)
