The new Deer Creek Bridge on Kings Road is nearing completion.
The construction of the bridge itself is done, and the new, improved and wider roadway is donning a brand-new coat of asphalt. However, there is still more work to be done, according to Crete Township Highway Commissioner, Anthony Recupito.
He mentions additional work to shoulders, landscaping, signage and striping as some of the things needing to be done before the road can reopen.
The Crete Township Plan Commission met on Thursday, August 25, 2022 to discuss a request from Balmoral Park 21, LLC, asking to rezone 29.78 acres of Balmoral Park from C-6 to I-1, to enable the continued use of the parking lot for the parking, storage, dispatching, and maintenance or repair of trucks, truck tractors and semi-trailers, and the construction of a truck terminal.
Balmoral Park was acquired last year by Balmoral Park 21, LLC, which is owned by Radomir Dobrasinovic. Mr. Dobrasinovic is also the Chief Executive Officer for trucking company MGR Freight System Inc., which is using Balmoral Park as storage for hundreds of its semi-trucks.
At the August 25 meeting, Mr. Dobrasinovic was absent and represented by his daughter, Kiki Dobrasinovic, and attorney Richard J. Kavanagh. After an opening presentation by Mr. Kavanagh, residents had an opportunity to ask questions and share opinions.
