The Linn County Commission signed final papers on the sale of the former Pleasanton Senior Center on Monday.
MOUND CITY – Members of the Linn County Commission signed final papers on the sale of the former Pleasanton Senior Citizens building on Monday, Oct. 23. The net proceeds of the sale was $55,000. The new owner will take possession of the building on Friday, Oct. 27 at 5 p.m.
Real Estate Agent Brandon McGinnis explained that anything left in the building at the time of closing becomes the buyer’s property.
Public Works Director Shaun West said that all items should be moved out of the building by that time. Some items will be stored for later use.
According to Assistant Public Works Director Jessica Hightower, the senior meals
from East Central Kansas Area Agency on Aging (ECKAAA) will be delivered to the
United Methodist Church in Pleasanton starting Friday, Oct. 27, until the new Senior
Center at Sixth and Main streets is open.
Seniors will be able to gather at the church for the meals, or if they prefer home
delivery, the meals will be delivered by volunteers to their homes.
Most of the kitchen utensils and other cookware from the former senior center will be stored until the new building is opened. A few items will be used by the kitchen at
the county’s Justice Center.
