Martinsville City Council holds a public hearing Tuesday on a $2.6 million budget amendment to fund the purchase of 231 E. Church St., the building known as the Fidelity Bank building, across East Church Street from One Ellsworth. The money would come from the city's fund balance.

Council approved a purchase agreement for the property at its Oct. 27 meeting. The staff report in this week's packet does not state the purchase price. The city began moving departments into uptown buildings Nov. 1 as it prepares for a planned courthouse conversion.

In the first phase of that move, the city manager's, city attorney's and community engagement offices relocated to the fifth floor of 231 E. Church St., while human resources, community development and the Economic Development Authority are moving into One Ellsworth. Tuesday's hearing gives residents a chance to comment before the amendment is voted on, and the full agenda packet is posted through the city.
