UPDATE<\/strong>: Danville’s IDA voted to take a 90-day purchase option on the property so that they could have the time needed for an environmental study on the underground gas tanks. We’re still 100% confident that the IDA will eventually buy the property.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

SouthsideCentral has learned that Danville’s Industrial Development Authority will vote to buy the gas station next to the Danville Museum of Fine Arts & History at their meeting on Tuesday, January 12th.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Background sources have confirmed that Danville’s Industrial Development Authority has entered into a sales contract to purchase the property at 1009 Main Street. That’s the location of a former Exxon gas station that has been closed for well over a year and it’s right across the street from the museum. The property has had multiple rezoning and special use permit applications turned down by Danville Planning Commission & City Council due to strong objections from nearby residents. The most recent attempt failed in December when potential new owners asked to have the property rezoned so that they could put a convenience store\/gas station on the property.<\/p>\n

SouthsideCentral has discovered that Danville’s Industrial Development Authority will go into closed session at their regular 11AM meeting on Tuesday to discuss this purchase\u00a0 then will return to open session to pass a resolution to officially buy the property from Abercrombie Oil Company. At this time, we do not know the proposed price nor do we know we the planned use for this property. Danville’s Industrial Development Authority has been buying a lot of commercial property over the past few years. They’ve either sold or leased their acquisitions to new owners. We believe that the rumored use of the property to be a refueling station for police vehicles to be false.<\/p>\n
