Developer presents Dollar General plan near Maxwell AFB; commission holds public hearing on drainage and access
Broadway Group LLC presented plans for a 10,640‑square‑foot Dollar General at 3806 Day Street near Maxwell Air Force Base during a public hearing before the Montgomery City Planning Commission.

The applicant said the site currently is about five acres of concrete and asphalt and that developing 1.44 acres in the front for the store will allow removal of roughly an acre of pavement to improve drainage. The representative described plans for 35 parking spaces, required landscaping and shielded exterior lighting that would switch off an hour after closing.

“We’ll be removing about an acre of asphalt to improve the drainage in that area,” the applicant said, and added that one of the existing two access points will be closed to help reduce water accumulation at a low point on the parcel. The applicant said the development would use shielded lighting and landscaping to improve the property’s appearance.

Commissioners asked about site details and the applicant answered questions about drainage, access consolidation and aesthetic upgrades. The transcript shows the item was a public hearing and that the commissioners closed the hearing; the transcript does not record a final approval vote within the provided excerpt.

Permitting steps and engineering approvals — including compliance with city drainage and access standards — will be required if the applicant returns for final plan approval. The applicant said they purchased the property through foreclosure and are developing the front portion of the lot for the proposed store.

Speakers on the record included a representative of Broadway Group LLC (name not stated in the transcript excerpt), and planning commission staff who ran the public hearing.

The commission’s public record for this item includes the conceptual plan details presented at the hearing; subsequent staff review and technical approvals would determine whether the project meets city standards before any building permit is issued.
