About 100 residents squeezed into the Cyril Allgeier
Community Center Wednesday evening to hear about and comment on rezoning the
old Kmart building at 4025 Poplar Level Road.
Clifford Ashburner of Dinsmore & Shohl LLP led the
meeting, joined by officials from Citadel Storage Partners I, the proposed developer of the property. They
plan to build climate-controlled self storage in the old store building.
The plan included the existing Wendy’s restaurant and
proposed two additional out lots in what had been Kmart parking with the hope
of trying to attract food establishments to occupy those lots.
Councilman Mulvihill’s office received inquiries about
requesting an evening meeting, since Planning Commission meetings are normally
held in the afternoon. This is done by petition (scroll to the bottom of the
page to Petitions for
Planning Commission Evening Public Hearings) at this link:

their child live.
