If redevelopment of the Solar Shopping Center is approved and remains on register, developers say they expect a new Giant Eagle to open in summer 2013.
Developers with Echo Realty presented their plans to the Solon Planning Commission at Conurbation Hall Tuesday night and talked about the schedule going further.
The developers are requesting a "fast track" approach since they must receive approbation by April 12, when their purchase agreement for the property expires. Planning commission members promised they will analyze the job diligently.
"While we will fast track this, this commission will not be taking any shortcuts," said planning chairman William Mazur.
If approved by the miscellaneous Solon committees and ultimately city council, Echo first plans to raise a 11,500 square foot retail center and redesign sections of the plaze will remnants, said Phil Bishop of Echo Realty.
Once those are finished in the Fall, the plaza's existing tenants will be moved into those spaces.
