Mount Shasta Herald
As soon as the COVID-19 vaccine is widely available, restrictions are lifted and people begin traveling again, Weed’s mayor Sue Tavalero and city manager Tim Rundel believe the town could blossom in a big way.
A few projects are lined up in South Weed in 2021. Work is being done on one of the dilapidated downtown buildings, and two new businesses are poised to open on Main Street. Iconic buildings, including the Cedar Lanes Bowling Alley, Weed Bakery, and the Palace Theater are for sale.
“The second half of 2021 and all of 2022 are looking like they’re going to be booming, real estate-wise,” said Rundel, who moved from Oklahoma in March, two days after the doors to City Hall were locked at the start of the pandemic.
