MDSA Properties, LLC, a contract purchaser, applied for a planned development for a hotel at 1424-1440 Higgins Road. On December 8, 2020 the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 8–0 on a motion recommending that the City Council approve the planned development preliminary plan, with deviations from zoning standards and conditions that include removing all billboards on the site after a building permit is issued and keeping the north access gate for emergency use only. The City Council's own action is not part of this record.

Documented status: Committee recommendation (recorded in draft minutes), Dec 8 2020. Evidence dated . Later outcomes require a later source.

No conflicting records are published for this item.

Permits at this address since the first recorded event

No approval, award or execution is recorded, so permits are counted after the first dated event, Dec 8, 2020 (Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval with conditions).

Computed by code from the building permits in the Park Ridge property release (the county permit feed), as of Nov 1, 2026. A permit shows that work was authorized, not that it was completed, and no permit recorded does not establish that nothing was built. A parcel matched by address is nominated by the address written in the record; that does not prove the record concerns it.
