The Meridian Company is planning to expand with a new building on East Saginaw Highway.
The plumbing and bathroom remodeling company wants to construct a 31,555-square-foot building on five acres.
Meridian Township's Community Planning and Development Director Tim Schmitt says The Meridian Company has outgrown its current space and township leaders hope to keep the company in the township.
“It's a pretty low-key business. They don't have pollution. They don't have a bunch of discharge. There's a lot of processing that goes on on site. It's really more of a design center / construction yard-type facility that is very high end, it's very nice," said Schmitt. "These are the kind of light industrial uses that you want to see in a community like ours that has a limited amount of industrial space in the township itself, and so we do our best to try and support businesses like this and keep them around.”
The Planning Commission recommended approving the special-use permit. If the township board approves the permit, construction is expected to begin this summer.
