Strathmore Development Co., the developer in charge of the City Center II project, paid the entirety of its outstanding city taxes Tuesday.
With the nearly $96,000 ledger erased with the city, Strathmore’s amended site plan will be considered by the East Lansing Planning Commission at its Feb. 24 meeting. The city had previously notified Strathmore owner Scott Chappelle that it would not consider any changes to the project until all city taxes were paid.
The project’s site plan and special use permit expired Dec. 17 when it failed to meet a city-imposed deadline.
East Lansing Mayor Vic Loomis was guarded about what the recent action might mean.
“He paid his taxes. I don’t see this as a big deal,” he said. “Currently he’s paid his taxes. I don’t think there’s much of a story here but maybe there is.”
