Nursing home project stalls
The owner of the former Mercy Manor has until the end of this month to kick-start an assisted-living facility project that appears to be at a standstill.
If Brad Goodrich doesn’t have building plans to the city by then, the city could issue a raze or repair order and then demolish the building, Gale Price of the community development department said.
“That’s really serious stuff,” Price said. “We want to see a successful project here, but at this point, we’re very concerned about (Goodrich’s) ability to pull this project off.”
The plan commission in June 2007 granted Goodrich a conditional-use permit to build an assisted-living facility in the former Mercy Manor at 119 S. Parker Drive.
The project was to take place within the former Mercy Manor and the hall part of the former YWCA.
