(JC Penny stores reopening)…Some are opening as part of the economic recovery.

Some will re-open later. Some will not be re-opening, at all. Officials at JC Penny say 79 stores will not be re-opening. They will be permanently closed in an attempt to stabilize financing under Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection. Nine of those stores are in California. The JC Penny Store in the Imperial Valley Mall is not on that list. It is not known if any more closures are planned in the future, and officials are not saying which stores would be on a future list. For now, The JC Penny Store in Imperial Valley is safe.
