UPDATE ON CITY ACTIVITY
• Sheppard gave updates on a number of projects:
Jimmy John’s development is progressing. Demolition has been completed. Their new site plan was
approved by the City. They hope to be open by mid-summer.
Wolf River Dental will be breaking ground this spring. Strive Behavioral Solutions expects to submit
plans to the City next week. The two developments are on a similar timeline. They are coordinating
utility work. The City’s obligation under their agreement with Strive has been completed.
Countertop Designs/Stone Creations is considering a new building on their facility off Jaycee Court.
The separate building will allow them to move their solid surface shop from Beauprey Road to Jaycee
Court and moving all production to the new building. They also intend to improve site access. This
matter will likely return on the February agenda.
Dearco is looking to expand their facilities to the East. They plan to add a new 35,000 s.f. production
facility with pedestrian access to the existing building.
Krause/Zierden are working to develop another plat at Pine View Estates for residential property
adjacent to their current development. The proposal is for 77 more units, some similar to their current
development and some single family.
Developers of the Dallas Waterstradt property are now looking to develop 22–26 single family homes
on the north part of the property. They are investigating costs for all utility services. Access for this part
will come off Airport Drive. Future development of the south area could allow street access from the
east as well. This matter will likely be back on the February agenda.
Skeeter Beaulieu is developing business condos at his property east of rainbow carwash. The heated
buildings are 2,400 s.f. with shop/storage/showroom space and a unisex toilet. One building is
completed and another is approved for construction.
Lot sales continue at the Kolby residential development. Most buyers are from out of town. The
developer is pleased with the level of interest.
The City is progressing with plans for renovations and an addition to the Rec Center utilizing funding
from their $4.25M grant award (no matching funds required). MSA intends to have plans and bidding
documents completed in March, with the bid opening in April and start of construction in June. The
facility will not include a second pool or gymnasium which could be included in a 2nd Phase. City
officials intend to begin conversations with the community regarding the need for such facilities and
potential funding.
The multi-story 23-33 unit downtown residential development at the automotive parts site on S. Main is
heating up. Developers claim that this project is their next priority.
