The Village of Crestline has an offer on the table for the former Citizens Bank building and now the decision on the building’s future is up to Village Council.

The building at 900 East Main Street is actually in Richland County and was at one time home to a Citizens Bank branch there. Joe Zara of Zara Construction met with the village’s Building and Grounds Committee earlier this week and offered to buy the property for $1 and then reinvest thousands to renovate and repair the structure.

Zara’s plans are to locate the plumbing division of his business there along with its 10 full-time employees. The village would receive income tax paid by the employees who would be headquartered at that location.

More on this story is available in the latest edition of The Crestline Advocate.
