Late
last week, the Habitat for Humanity of Logan County announced it had
sold this building on Woodlawn Road. The former drive-thru bank
building was donated to the HFH for use as an office. Since that
time, Habitat has built the warehouse space next door to this
building and now will move its office into it.
The buyers - Xiao Pan, Xia Xia Wu and Cody Zhao are from out of town
and will be moving to Lincoln according to sources from HFH. The
trio did not say what type of business they plan to put in the
building. However, the HFH stipulated in the sale that the building
could not be used as a tattoo parlor, gaming establishment, or for
the sale of cannabis.

THE LOGAN COUNTY COURTHOUSE IS OPEN
TODAY
According to County Clerk Theresa Moore,
some may have been confused by the announcement last night
that the courthouse was closed. That announcement
applied only to those who may have wanted to go to the
courthouse to watch election results come in.
The courthouse is OPEN today and until
further notice will be open daily regular hours. |
