Developer cites cost-driven changes; Plan Commission approves multi-family permits at Butler St
Summary
The commission approved multi-family building permits for properties at 210 and 316 Butler St after the developer said cost-driven 'value engineering' led to minor design changes; commissioners approved the permits 7-0.
Developer Chris Merklein told the Plan Commission that rising material costs required "value engineering," producing minor design changes to the multi-family projects at 210 and 316 Butler St. The largest modification described was to the garage-side roofline; final exterior color choices remain unsettled because of product supply constraints and the developer said they would return for review if colors change.
Chairman Duane Urbanski moved to approve the permits as submitted; Member Steven Masslich seconded the motion, which carried 7-0. The minutes record no additional conditions or timelines associated with the approvals.
