The Muncie Redevelopment Commission will fund a study to determine the viability of building a hotel on the east side of the city. According to reporting from The Star Press, Mayor Dan Ridenour says a developer has expressed interest in bringing a new inn to the city.

Ridenour reportedly said the study, which should cost less than $20,000, would help determine where a hotel should located; either closer to the trailhead or near the Muncie Bypass at State Road 32.

The MRC agreed unanimously to fund the study. MRC President Jeffrey Howe said the information could be used to bring in other developers.
