There is a storefront space at 127 North Main Street where some new tenants have moved in. Josh Robertson is the pastor at City Church Salt County. The church members had been helping to make the space their home for a few months and then they held a home warming party in early April.
Robertson feels particularly at home in this space because his grandparents, Mort and Pauline Burton, owned Burton Jewelry Store in that same location in historic downtown Benton from 1949 to 1978. There is actually a plaque in front of the building stating so.
