City Council is expected to approve an ordinance that would amend the Central Business District (CBD) Redevelopment Plan, allowing a proposal for 219 units on the Center Circle property on Main Street. The Planning Board recommended the approvals last month.
Original concept plans to construct an addition onto an existing East Cherry Street property aren’t likely to happen and instead a new round of changes are expected to a project that initially proposed 43 units.
The developer of a 45-unit project aims to begin demolition of existing buildings along East Cherry Street by next month to allow construction to begin before winter.
The Redevelopment Agency has formally asked City Council to authorize a preliminary study to determine whether there are areas of the city that may be in need of redevelopment.
City Council last night tabled three ordinances related to a new 20-year water lease agreement for the city’s water treatment plan, pending review and approval by the state Local Finance Board.
