The Cisco Heating & Air Conditioning Building on West Clay which is being purchased by Lindenwood University. First Capitol News Photo by Tony BrockmeyerDennis Spellmann, President of Lindenwood University has announced that an agreement has been reached with Darin Cissell who owns Cisco Heating and Air Conditioning. Although the City had given the Lindenwood University Re-development project the right of eminent domain to use to acquire the approximately 1/3 acre of property, successful negotiations between the University and Cissell have made it unnecessary. The Cisco Company will be moving to a new location.
“Closing on the property is to be held on Tuesday, December 6, 2005,” President Spellmann told the First Capitol News. “The business plans to be completely moved out by Saturday, December 10, 2005. We have scheduled asbestos removal to begin by December 12th and demolition to begin by December 19th.”
According to President Spellmann, the last piece of property in the area the University needs to acquire is the old Master Mulch building that has sat vacant for over 10 years.
Thoele has already begun demolition of the building they owned on property the University acquired.
The property was acquired and the buildings are being demolished to make room for the new $30 million, 132,000 square foot Fine and Performing Arts Center.
