Residents will be able to learn details about Nationwide Realty Investors and Equity’s plans for redevelopment of the former Big Bear property on Goodale Boulevard at two meetings to be held next month.
Grandview Heights City Council will hold a special meeting at 7 p.m. Dec. 13, when city officials will review the proposed update of the community plan for the Goodale Boulevard area and also discuss the process for the city’s consideration of Nationwide’s plans for the 60-acre site.
Representatives of Nationwide are expected to attend the Dec. 19 Grandview Planning Commission meeting and make an informal presentation about the redevelopment plan for the Big Bear property. The developer will not be making a formal application at the meeting, which will begin at 7 p.m.
Nationwide is planning a large mixed-use development featuring office, commercial/retail and residential components, according to Mayor Ray DeGraw. The project will also likely include some sort of open recreational space.
The proposed redevelopment “is exactly what we’ve said we want” for the Big Bear property, he said. “It’s a mixed-use, large density project. I’m excited about it and I think the community will be excited when they hear the specifics.”
