"WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET" the dramatics

And shame your name
But baby, I have good intentions

And Sometimes you don't get what you see

Headed over to the Land Bank Meeting today to see what was going on with 265 N. State St. ie; The HOLA Kitchen/ incubator/clubhouse?

Well I found it strange it wasn't even on the meeting agenda?

Near the end of the meeting Mr. John Rogers brought up the parcel of property to the board. Seems we have hit a snag. When the Land Bank cleaned out the interior of the building at a cost of $10,000 they noticed two underground  oil storage tanks? In an office building? Well in a long long time ago that building was I believe a Desoto Automobile Dealership and repairs were made inside in the garage before it was converted to an office building.

Checking with Painesville City, yes that property has underground storage tanks. So what's our next move?

Painesville has received a grant to do assessments on two properties with supposed underground tanks this on and one on Stage Ave. After the assessments are made with concerns to size and quantities the Land Bank will decide  what to do next. The owner left the County holding the bag and the County has now left it to the responsibility of the Land Bank.

Overall I believe HOLA dodged a bullet.  Can't see saving the building with underground tanks that have to be removed?

Ah, Good Intentions!
