It may not look like much now, but come spring that tore up space by the railroad tracks in Edon will become a Family Dollar store.
Wilson Excavating of Edgerton is getting all the sod out and the base stone in place for a spring construction, Edon Administrator Randy Mahlman said. The terms set forth by the parent company dictates a halt to the work soon.
The company states that once the asphalt is laid, there is a 90-day window for the building to go up. Mahlman said, Since the contractor uses hot mix, trying to build the store now would not provide enough time to complete it in the required time limit, he said.
