Discover the New Mills River Marketplace: Your Ultimate Grocery Hub
TL/DR –
The Marketplace at Mills River, a new grocery store complex set to be built in Mills River off N.C. 280, has received a zoning permit approval from the town’s planning staff. The project, being developed by Harris Development Partners, has undergone no significant changes from its original plans, with the exception of a private driveway’s realignment. The next steps for the developers involve securing approvals from the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality for an erosion and sediment control plan, and a storm water management plan, after which they can begin site work and grading.
A New Grocery Store Complex in Mills River Advances One Step Further
Development is progressing for a new grocery store complex in Mills River, off N.C. 280, known as The Marketplace at Mills River. The town’s planning staff issued zoning permit approval on March 8 for Harris Development Partners’ newest venture.
Michael Malecek, the Mills River planning director, reported no significant changes in the approved plans compared to the original site plans. Asa Harris, president of Raleigh-based Harris Development Partners, declined to comment on the identity of the tenant for the grocery store.
Harris’ past projects have included collaborations with major national tenants like Publix, Whole Foods, Walmart, Walgreens, Harris Teeter, Lowes Foods, and L.A. Fitness.
The only modification to the original plans was a private driveway realignment off Emma Sharp Road. The approved development still includes a 50,325 square-foot grocery store with an unidentified tenant and a 10,800 square-foot retail shop building.
Harris has initiated applications with the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality for approval of an erosion and sediment control plan and a storm water management plan.
Once these approvals are secured, the developers can commence land disturbance, site work, and grading. Following this, they must apply for building permits with the Henderson County Permits and Inspections Department before commencing the construction of structures on the site.
