Council Member Avilés presses the applicant team for specific details on changes to space allocations in the 150 Mill Street proposal. Nicholas Liberis provides information about the second floor's layout and use.

  • The total square footage of the second floor is approximately 75,500 sq ft
  • 48,100 sq ft is allocated for light manufacturing on the second floor
  • Liberis defends the size of the proposed supermarket, stating it's a common size for urban locations
  • The supermarket would occupy about 4,000 sq ft in the cellar and 6,000-7,000 sq ft on the ground floor, totaling around 11,000 sq ft
  • Avilés expresses concern that the proposal remains primarily commercial use (about 80%) despite being in an Industrial Business Zone

always included a what I would call a mini mark because it's too small to actually be a supermarket, which was what you went out and promised community members at the beginning of the process.
0:36:04

include That is the fundamental change of this application?
Nicholas Liberis
0:37:05
That's the change.

That's the change.
0:37:07
And also just to just to quickly rebut for the supermarket, this is like a pretty well well sized supermarket.
0:37:12
It's like a common size that you see, you know, Oliver Brocon.
0:37:15
It's about I think 4 to 4000 square feet that's in the cellar and then another 6 or 7000 square feet on the on the on the ground floor.
