Town staff sends compliance letters, readies lawsuit over stalled hotel near Interstate 385
Summary
Collierville staff said they have sent written correspondence to the owners of the stalled hotel on the 385 corridor, attached a draft lawsuit and warned they will file if the owners do not bring the project into compliance after stop‑work and stability issues delayed progress.
Planning staff told the commission the town has formally notified the owners of the stalled hotel project along the 385 corridor that they must remedy outstanding construction and safety issues or face legal action.
A staff speaker said the town sent written correspondence this week, attached a draft lawsuit and warned that the town will file suit if the owners do not comply. Staff described earlier stop‑work orders tied to site stabilization and ownership turnover that contributed to the delay and said they expect to hear back from the owners shortly.
Commissioners asked whether the problem was funding; staff said ownership changes and site stabilization issues—not only funding—have delayed vertical construction. Staff described the town’s next steps as active enforcement and possible litigation if compliance is not achieved.
No formal motion was made; the announcement was informational about enforcement activity.
