Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Midlothian public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Eighth Street Revitalization and Improvement Grant Request
Leasing Impressions Commercial is asking the MCD for a $1 million grant to help fund a $2.5 million downtown project. The development would add 10,000 square feet of retail space and 77 public parking spots, but some board members and residents questioned whether public funds should subsidize private commercial property before tenants are secured.
Home Depot Detailed Site Plan
A new Home Depot store and garden center is planned for West Main Street within the Crestview development. The 106,651-square-foot store will bring retail options and economic activity to a high-visibility corridor.
Industrial Accessory Structures
A big developer just bought up a bunch of land near the new Google data center, which means Midlothian is about to see a massive wave of new construction. Expect the area to transform quickly as more commercial projects break ground.
Kotha Holdings Industrial Infrastructure Agreement
A performance agreement with Kotha Holdings provides a $4.3 million forgivable loan for infrastructure improvements, including Hayes Road construction, to open up 170 acres for light industrial development.
