City To Buy Downtown Site
The city of Vernon is buying another piece of property in the downtown. Council has given approval to buy The Vernon Flower Shop at 3011 31st Avenue from the Spoor family, for 315-thousand dollars. Councillor Patrick Nicol says there's no specific plan for the site. "We need to improve our downtown core, we need to continue move forward and that's what that's all about, and the prices these days are a little bit lower than they were a few years ago so this is an opportune time to purchase." The site is near other ones the city has acquired the last few years between the Library/civic centre and Cenotaph Park.
