Deal made to sell current Urban League building

CHAMPAIGN – The Urban League has signed an agreement to sell its downtown Champaign headquarters to developers Mike and Dan Hosier as soon as it can find a new, smaller location.

The agency, which has shrunk from 60 employees a few years ago to 14 now, no longer needs so much office space and wants to downsize.
