MIDDLETOWN - The city was awarded a $400,000 state grant to buy and  
clean up a former gas station on Main Street, which will then be sold  
to the Community Health Center.

City Planning Director William Warner said pumps on the property at  
Main and Grand streets are leaking gasoline into the soil, making the  
property a big risk for potential developers. The grant will be used  
to buy the gas station for $275,000 from the current owers and clean

be the site of an administrative headquarters building with retail  
space on the first floor.
