Committee approves two Keating complex leases for retail and artist studio
Summary
The Middletown Economic Development Committee approved two leases at the Keating complex: a 6,600 sq ft retail/assembly space for Bridal Cartel and a 3,000 sq ft studio for artist Elizabeth Becto (Star Lizzie Studios); both motions passed by voice vote and will proceed to subsequent review steps.
The Middletown Economic Development Committee voted to approve two lease proposals at the Keating complex during Tuesday’s meeting.
The committee approved a resolution to authorize a 6,600-square-foot lease in Building A for Bridal Cartel to establish retail space and assemble a monthly children’s snack subscription. Committee members said the tenant is already operating at the complex and the retail storefront would expand a locally based business.
The committee also approved a 3,000-square-foot lease in Building C for Star Lizzie Studios, the artist studio and instruction space for Elizabeth Becto. Staff noted Becto has experience as a fine artist and plans to offer classes and on-site work.
Both measures were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote at committee; staff indicated both approvals will follow normal subsequent reviews (planning/finance) before final council action or execution of documents.
