The Common Council passed the zoning changes and changes to the Neighborhood and the City's Comprehensive Plans to accomodate a 58K sq ft grocery store wher the Doric Lodge is located along Cottage Grove Rd. The hope is that the gorcery will serve as an "anchor business" to facilitate the building of the much desired town center.
Alder Cnare's Blog following the decision is below. We will continue to update this page, as we have been, with relevant dates for any design meetings and any plans that are made available to us as the plan moves forward. A link to Alder Cnare's bog can be found here:

Grandview Commons Town Center Passes Common Council
Many thanks to those who have participated over these years, those who attended meetings, wrote e-mails and letters, and engaged in the process.
The Common Council passed the Comprehensive and Neighborhood Plan amendments, and the zoning change and plat.
There won't be shovels in the ground tomorrow, though, since this is the first step - the one called the General Development Plan (GDP). Before anything is ready to be built, it must go through a similar process at a more detailed level - the Specific Implementation Plan.
There are many opportunities to improve design details at this level, and the grocery store and a required second "retail or shop building" will undergo these steps as the first buildings on the site.
As soon as a schedule is developed, I will share it here.
Thank you again for working so hard, for so long on this project. I know it has been difficult and for those who were opposed to the proposal, I admire your tenacity to advocate for what you want for the neighborhood. No one won or lost; we all lived our beliefs in a democratic process. Please stay engaged in the next round.
The letter from the MPNA Board to Common Council on March 20th is a reflection of a unanimous vote of the current Board Members asking for a compromised solution for a grocery store.
