He added that the long-term plan for the site could eventually see the apartments converted into condominium units with individual owners.Įngineering consultant Jeff Cockfield of Grand Traverse Engineering told commissioners the residential portion of the project would be built first, with approvals and permits obtained over the next few months and construction beginning in the 2020 season. “If you’re in a service-industry job, I have no idea how you’re affording (that),” Cutler said. Cutler referenced other area apartment complexes that feature luxury interior fixtures and amenities that push rent to the $1,100 range for one-bedroom apartments, saying that was not Loomba’s goal for the project. “I know that his intent is not to make it high-end,” said Cutler, adding he did not yet know Loomba’s planned rental rates for the units. Realtor Dave Cutler of Twin Bay Properties, which represents the property, told East Bay Township planning commissioners last week that Loomba has a similar project in Muskegon and would be looking to “keep the rents down” while still making the apartments “really nice and affordable.” Thirty-two parking spaces would service the apartment complex. The project calls for four residential apartment buildings to be built, each 4,000 square feet in size and containing eight one-bedroom apartments. Developer Dave Loomba is planning to build a 13,000 square-foot commercial building at the front of the property along South Airport Road, with a 32-unit apartment complex called Mitten Apartments slated for the southern back half of the property. The project is proposed to go on 3.74 vacant acres of land on the southeast corner of the South Airport/Townline intersection (pictured), which sits at the entrance to Cherry Capital Airport.
