Cornell City Council - Three of Brunet Estates lots snatched up for development

By Ginna Young It was good news for all concerned March 7, at the Cornell City Council meeting, as an offer was acted on from Better Built Inc., to purchase Lots 7, 8 and 9, of Brunet Estates, for the asking price of $38,501.
