II. Site and Surrotmding Area

This item concerns a property located south of the Interstate 75 and US 41/441 interchange in the Ellisville area. The property is near existing interstate-oriented commercial businesses such as a travel center, fueling station, restaurant, mini-storage, and hotel. It is also next to public facility lands and areas designated for highway interchange commercial use. This civic agenda item is currently under review.

Contractors specializing in site preparation, general construction, concrete, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing could find opportunities. Suppliers of building materials and equipment would also be needed. Engaging with the process early, before final plans and permits are set, offers the best chance to compete for this future work.

IV. Land Development Regulations - Section 16.2 Review

The Board of County Commissioners is reviewing a proposed rezoning request for a future land use designation. This change would allow for highway commercial/interchange development, extending an existing pattern. The proposal aims to reduce residential development potential and replace it with nonresidential uses. Any future site plan will need to meet county standards for access, buffering, lighting, drainage, stormwater management, parking, landscaping, floodplain management, and wetland protection. This item is currently under review. The project would involve site clearing, grading, underground utility work, stormwater management systems, paving, and potentially vertical construction for commercial buildings. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in site preparation, civil engineering, concrete, paving, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and landscaping could find opportunities. Reaching out now, before final site plans and permits are set, offers the best chance to compete for this future work.
