Carbon County EDC acquires Mercantile Store building
The Carbon County Economic Development Corporation (CCEDC) closed on the purchase of a building in downtown Rawlins that is home to a community-owned clothing store, the Carbon Mercantile Corporation. A Community Development Block Grant of $295,000 from the Wyoming Business Council to Carbon County made the purchase possible, and the County Commissioners designated CCEDC to take title to the property. The CCEDC began leasing the building to Carbon Mercantile on March 1, 2007, and revenue from the monthly lease and the eventual sale of the property to the Carbon Mercantile will support the CCEDC's commitment to community and economic development throughout Carbon County. Partners that made this project possible include the CCEDC, Carbon County Commissioners, Rawlins Daily Times, Rawlins Main Street, Wyoming Business Council, and the Wyoming Community Foundation.
