The proposed project is a neighborhood
shopping center concept that will provide a

county. Phase I of the project would include
construction of a 6,000 sq ft building with
the expansion capability to 10,000 sq ft. The

for retail shopping types of development.

the community will be proud of.
Mr. Hunt asked what type of retail shops are
anticipated.
Mr. Krizman responded that the retail shops
would be of a convenience nature; typically
a restaurant, a fast food establishment, a hair
styling salon and other types of convenience
that would cater to the existing traffic and
would support the current businesses in the
area, as well as anticipate future residential
growth that would evolve over the life of the
development, making it more of a
neighborhood destination center.
Mr. Hunt explained that property cannot be
sold on speculation and the right of first
refusal is not the same as an option.
