CLEVELAND, Tenn.-The plan for a new farmers market is back.
Last summer, Bradley County officials decided to build a farmers market shed on Urbane Road near the current recycling drop-off site. The project was delayed for lack of funds.
This spring, a scaled-back version of the market, and an anonymous donation, have brought the project into funding range.
“Our budget is a $40,000 grant we previously received plus an anonymous donation of $25,000,” County Commission Chairman Louie Alford said.
With that $65,000, a 125-foot-by-40-foot shed can be built at the site, said Jeff Yarber, a county commissioner and chairman of the Building and Lands Committee, which reviewed the plans last week.
