“Anytime I drive by an empty store front I feel like it’s a missed opportunity for a business that could of been,” said Graphics Manager of Sign Brothers Josh Young. “Anytime there is a ran down store front it doesn’t look good on our down town. It always look better if all our store fronts are filled and beautified,” said Young. City leadership is also noticing the empty buildings. In the city commission meeting on April 25th, Mayor Ron Seglie said that while Broadway is looking good, there’s still work to be done. He holds the building owners responsible and wants to see something being done with those buildings. “We have 13 or 14 empty store fronts we would like to see businesses in those stores and I’m hoping somewhere down the road something like that will happen but some of them are well kept and some are not,” said Seglie.
