"Monroeville Convention Center Secures Future with New Agreement, Avoids Closure"
The Monroeville Convention Center will not close as previously announced at the end of May, thanks to a new agreement reached after involvement from state, county, and local officials. Discussions with Hobby Lobby and Oxford Development Company have led to the decision not to close the center, with both parties mutually agreeing to terminate the Hobby Lobby lease at the location. This outcome is the result of several weeks of discussions and efforts from various stakeholders, ensuring that the convention center remains a properly owned and funded community asset.
