City says new Evergreen Plant tenant to bring about 50 jobs; site plan changes will go to Planning Commission
Summary
Olmsted Falls economic-development consultant and the mayor said Cimino Box and Pallot will occupy the Evergreen Plant by December with about 50 employees; they do not plan to use rail and will seek planning‑commission review for exterior site changes.
Tom Jordan, the city's Economic Development Consultant, told council the incoming tenant for the Evergreen Plant—identified by administration as Cimino Box and Pallot—plans to occupy the facility by the end of December and is expected to bring approximately 50 employees to the site. Jordan said the tenant "will probably have to go before the planning commission" because planned exterior site changes require a site-plan review, and that both building management and the company have been participating in neighborhood meetings to coordinate with adjacent residential development.
Jordan added that the company does not intend to use the rail system; instead, it will ship by semi-truck and "they own their own so there will not be contractors coming in and out," and the city has coordinated with the police chief on truck routing. Council did not take formal action; Jordan said more detailed site/layout plans and revenue estimates will be available at the Planning Commission stage.
