County Booth Wins Best of Show 100th Kentucky State Fair

Through the combined efforts of the Chamber of Commerce and its sponsoring members an award winning County booth was created for the 100th Kentucky State Fair.  This years theme “Natural Inviting” depicted the Halfway Store and its “See Rock City” roof sign.  This once common advertisement is slowing disappearing and there reported to be only two remaining roof signs.  The award, presented by Farm Bureau, signified the efforts of the Allen County group as Best of Show.   

 Building Construction Activity Continues

The construction boom in Scottsville continues as to new businesses begin construction activities. Dollar General Corporation has announced the development and has begun construction on a 24,610 SF Dollar General Market to be located on the Burnley Road near the intersection of US 231 and US 31 E. (see Economic Development for details)

In addition, CHMM, L.L.C. has announced the development of a Huddle House restaurant on a 3 acre tract located on Lois Moore Drive. Lois Moore Drive is the remaining portion of US321 that was dead ended by the construction of the new US231. 

Both businesses will have access to US 231 at the new signalized intersection of Burnley Road, Bowling Green Road (US3241) and US 231.  With construction of the new US 231 nearing completion, the western side the City should see continued development as local businesses try to capture rural customers from west Allen County and east Warren County.
