Commercial Projects

Olivette Gateway Proposal

A commercial project primarily involves improvements associated with the construction of structures and facilities for commerce and business.  In addition, Olivette also includes multifamily buildings consisting of 4 or more attached residential units as a commercial project. Commercial projects may include retail shops, restaurants, hotels, medical buildings and facilities, industrial buildings, warehouses, and office buildings.  A majority of commercial projects in Olivette will also have a zoning designation consisting of "COR" Commercial/Office/Retail District, "PRO" Planned Residential/Office District and "LID" Light Industrial District.

Municipal and Other Public Projects

A municipal project primarily involves the City overseeing design, development, and/or construction. Municipal projects include the City's municipal facilities such as City Hall, the Community Center, or Public Works, and includes street and sidewalk improvements, and park improvements. A majority of municipal projects are conducted in public rights-of-way or on land zoned "PA" Public Activity District.

Other public entities, such as Missouri American Water, Spire, and MSD perform a variety of projects in the City.  While the utility may contract with private contractors to perform the work, responsibility for design, development, and/or construction remains that of the public utility company.
