"Until a rumor is confirmed from an owner it is just that, a rumor," The County Seat owner Roger Mora said Wednesday in an email. "If and when we are ready to address these rumors we will.

"Just because you just heard a rumor does not constitute an abrupt change or make it true. We are private people and have the right to address this in our own way."

An employee at the Water Street restaurant who spoke privately to Daily Voice said the restaurant will be closing Saturday.

"No one truly knows what goes into running our business or what happens behind the scenes but us," Mora said. "Some things are private for a reason."
