Kirtland City Council voted Oct. 6 to accept the preliminary plan for a proposed mixed-used development in Kirtland’s Historic Town Center at 9337 Chillicothe Road. Ray Sankovich and Alan Negrelli, of Signature Real Estate Services, as well as Brett Dawson and Mike Caito, of Payne and Payne Builders, of Munson Township, were present at the meeting to provide an overview of the project dubbed "Kirtland Town Center." Development plans for the 5.65acre property, located within the Historic Town Center zoning district, include 10 single-family home sites for sale, eight attached villa homes for sale and two buildings with 20 residential units for lease,
