The Junction City Commission has scheduled an August 18 public hearing  to address the possible condemnation of the former Denny’s Restaurant building at 1032 South Washington Street.

After Denny’s closed other restaurants occuppied the building, but for many years it was the home to Denny’s. But on Dec. 1, 2013 the building burned, and has been vacant since.

City officials noted during discussion Tuesday night that there was a lot of damage to the building, it was unstable, and structurally very unsafe.
