Lowe's: Plans would cut back
on site's industrial development
Contmued from Page Cl
"There are no specIfIC dates
for the addItional requIred ap
phcatlOns," she added
The developer needs to
change eXIsting gavel nment
plans for the land that deSIgnate
about half the sIte for mdush Ial
t'elopment, and the 1 est fOl
\lsmg and commercIal uses
The developer's plans would
greatly reduce the mdustnal
component
RICk Sat! e saId construction
should begm next summer on
streets and utIlItIes for the
proJect's 48 acres of cammel cIal
development, then work WIll
start on the Lowe's bmldmg
"They're hopmg to open
theIr doors In the fust quarter
of '08," he sald
JHB Inc InternatIOnal
bought the 100 acre bIte near
28th Street and Marcola Road
from the local PIel ce famIly In
AprIl for $8 mIllIOn
The Martlll Co of Albany IS
lIsted as developer for the
project
The overall plan lllcludes the
Lowe's store, along WIth 229
smgle famIly homes, 90 at
tached town houses and nearly
200 apartment Ul1lts
Satre saId the concept IS for
four dlstmct 'vIllages" wlthm
the 52 acre reSIdential SIde of
the development - smgle faml
ly, town houses, apartments
and Sel1l0l cottages
Plans for the commercIal
SIde call for evel ythmg from
'mam street retaIl" to profes
slO11al office bmldmgs to large
commercIal bUIldmgs such as
the Lowe's, he SaId
"The only one that has com
mItted so fdl IS Lowe's," Sntre
s~lld
'There's been lots of mter
est, and lots of dlSCUSSlOn gomg
on, but they', e the only ones
that have SIgned on"
In Eugene, the prehmlnary
plans submItted last year called

on a 47-acre parcel at 4650 W
11th Ave The parcel at West
11th and WIllow Creek Road IS
owned by developer Asghar
Sadn of Vancouver, Wash
The west Eugene SIte would
have posItioned Lowe's about a
