The community is invited to learn about the future development of the former Cetron factory site during a Plan Commission public hearing at 7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 17 at Geneva City Hall Council Chambers, 109 James St.

The Seventh & State street proposal calls for a 219-unit apartment building, a 353-space parking structure, 106 surface parking spaces, a 5,940-square-foot retail building and the extension of Seventh Street from West State Street to Peyton Street. During the public hearing, Marquette Companies will give a presentation on their development plans, and residents will have an opportunity to provide feedback.

The project plans are posted in the Agenda Center on the City’s website (see link below).

All documents and plans also are on file and available for public inspection during regular business hours (8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday) in the Community Development Department at City Hall, 22 S. First St. A 3-dimensional model and additional renderings of the proposed project are available for review in Council Chambers during normal business hours. Please note, the model is intended to portray scale and does not represent all of the building or site details.

The project area includes property bounded by Peyton Street to the north, State Street to the south, Richards Street to the west and Seventh Street (extended north to Peyton) to the east. The area includes a land parcel located at the southeast corner of the Seventh (extended) and Peyton street.
