Steinbach City Council has approved a subdivision request for a new commercial condo development on Park Road just west of the Rental House.

Mayor Earl Funk says the developer is planning to build three 5-unit commercial condo buildings on the site at 286 Park Road West.

"Based on the site plan, I think the smallest one is 1,208 and the largest one is 1,217 square feet for businesses that need more room, businesses that are growing or brand-new business start-ups it is a great place to incubate,” says Funk adding, “These small square footage spots, they are relatively inexpensive to lease and so small startups or businesses that are growing, they look very attractive to move into."

Funk says the subdivision application was unanimously approved by city council.

As more and more development takes place along Park Road West, Funk notes there is more pressure to rebuild and pave the road. He says council will discuss this further at a future planning session.
