The Aiken City Council could soon begin the process of selling Newberry Hall, a downtown building once slated to be demolished as part of Project Pascalis.
The legal battle over Aiken s Project Pascalis could be headed to the South Carolina Court of Appeals. Attorney Andrew Gowder filed a notice of an appeal.
The Aiken City Council voted unanimously Monday evening to approve the first readings of ordinances granting one-year lease extensions with a mutual option for a second year to the three businesses. The lease extensions contain a provision, Item 19, offering owners Jeannette Moseley (Vampire Penguin and Flawless Glow) and Brooke Thomas (Ginger Bee) the chance to purchase their parts of the Beckman building.
