SIOUX CITY — The city of Sioux City is looking to utilize prominent space to obtain around 7,000 square feet of land and a 22,000-square-foot brief development easement from Menards for a future street venture.
Sioux City tm.menard intends to realign a segment of Garretson Avenue close Siouxland Christian School in the mid year 2019 yet has “arrive at an impasse” in dealings with Menard Inc. for a bit of property that incorporates some portion of the east side of its parking garage and street access, as indicated by city archives. Archives state the city has been consulting since August 2017.
The Garretson Avenue realignment task will move the way toward the south so as to permit traffic more space close to the new sign on Gordon Drive, in line with the Iowa Department of Transportation.
“The area where Garretson Avenue comes into the Menards parking area is excessively close in closeness to the sign and doesn’t enable vehicles to pile up close to the sign,” said city network improvement activities administrator Jeff Hanson. “The DOT is expecting us to move Garretson toward the south.”
Hanson said the city needs to obtain the package from Menards to finish the realignment.
