Even with more than half a million dollars in incentives over 20 years lined up for the developers who had planned to build a Dollar General store in Ogden, the project has been put "on indefinite hold due to the economics of the deal," according to a recent letter to the mayor from a representative of one of the real estate firms involved.
Bob Elkan of the Westmore Realty Group in St. Louis sent the e-mail message last Friday to Mayor Jack Reidner. Earlier in the week, Reidner said, he had been given the impression that the deal was still on and simply awaiting approval from the lawyers on some language in the contracts.
