Elmira, N.Y. – The doors of First Arena may be closing if more than $130,000 dollars in late taxes and fees aren’t paid.

Chemung County has started foreclosure proceedings against First Arena.

Southern Tier Economic Development is the owner of the building, but the Afr family, who owns the Elmira Jackals, is responsible for paying taxes and fees.

The Afr’s currently owe just over $136,000; Chemung County officials said the family is three years behind on payments.

The deadline for the payments was last Tuesday.

“As of 4:30 on [January] 17th, if you wanted to stop foreclosure from happening, the taxes had to be paid. They chose to do nothing. As County Executive, I’m certainly discouraged that they didn’t uphold their responsibilities to the lease agreement,” said Tom Santulli.

A judge will now sign a foreclosure order, and the Afr’s will have until February 29th to pay the owed money.

Robbie Nichols, the General Manager for the Elmira Jackals, said the team will not be impacted as of now.

Calls to the Afr family were not immediately returned.

“I am an Art Director.
It’s something in the soul, not a title.
Something you breathe, not walk through.
The time is up for shortcuts, maybes and we’ll sees.
The time is ripe for creating, thinking, pushing, trying, forging, failing and succeeding.
These are my verbs, my words to help me, guide me and above all else - inspire me.
I am an Art Director and this is my stage.”

Stewie: Oh, that is so lame every girl who can aim a camera thinks she is a photographer. Oooh, you took a black and white picture of a lawn chair and it's shadow and developed it at Sav-On. You must be so brooding and deep.
