Fallout continues after Roanoke council's unexpected denial of Fishburn Park cafe

Summary by Ground News

Justin and Keri vanBlaricom have been working with the city on their dream to turn the long-neglected Fishburn Park caretaker's cottage into the Fishburn Perk cafe. In December, the council voted 6-1 to approve a contract outlining what they'd need to do to make it happen. The contract established a process that, as long as they met its stipulations and worked in good faith, the city would sell them the 1.1 acres of park land for $10. Under the agreement, they were going to spend much more to renovate the house and create what they believed would be a successful business.
