Workers inside the old Safeway building on North Carson Street are busy ripping up the old flooring and getting the space ready for its new tenant, C-A-L Ranch Store.

A new sign went up in front of the building this weekend, and store manager Gus Mohr said he is crossing his finger to have the new store open by May 1.

"This week we have guys coming in to do the demolition work," Mohr said, looking out at the empty interior of the building.

Mohr managed the C-A-L Ranch Store in Spanish Fork, Utah for 11 years before moving to Carson City to open this new store.
