Nearly a month after voluntarily filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, for the second time in less than a year, Joann announced plans to close approximately 500 of its more than 800 locations.

Among those listed by the fabrics and crafts retailer is Flagstaff's location at 1514 S. Riordan Ranch St., one of the 11 stores in Arizona to be included in a motion filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court as the company seeks to "maximize the value of the business." A hearing for the motion is scheduled for Friday, Feb. 14, with store closing sales expected to begin on Saturday, Feb. 15, should the court approve the plan.
