MSD recently acquired a
piece of property that will serve as its new centralized maintenance
facility.
The 25-acre site located on
the southeast corner of Cane Run Road and Algonquin Parkway (the
former Big A Shopping Center (3401 Cane Run Road). The site includes a
198,000 square foot building that had been used as a distribution
center.
The purchase price was $4.67
million. It will take approximately one year to renovate and modify
the site to fit MSD’s operational requirements.
The site will be the staging
point for all sanitary and stormwater maintenance personnel, equipment
and materials. In addition, MSD Regulatory Management Services
Division – Field Operation, Fleet Maintenance and Record Waste
Management Department will operate from this facility. The new site
will eliminate the need for current sites at Cable Street and Seventh
Street. MSD’s goal is to operate from this centralized location,
which will improve efficiency, save resources and provide a quicker
response to customer requests and project needs.
