Redevelopment Commission to consider purchase of Second Street property

A special meeting of the Columbus Redevelopment Commission is set for Thursday afternoon. Heather Pope, the city’s director of redevelopment, explains the commission will consider the purchase of just under an acre in the 800 block of Second Street.

The property, at 867 Second Street, formerly served as a gas station.

Pope says the property is connected to other property owned by the city.

The Redevelopment Commission meets at 4 p.m. Thursday at city hall.
