Members of the El Paso Plan Commission have given their approval to the building of a project that will see the construction of a rectangular-shaped, one-story structure at 3624 Joe Battle Boulevard.
The site in northeastern El Paso is located on a byway populated with one-story office and commercial structures on one side and a three-story Woodsprings Suite hotel on the other.
The commission votes come on the heels of a City of El Paso planning staff approval recommendation for the project.
The property, which is currently vacant, is owned by a company called Kambiz Properties, based in El Paso.
The 9,200 square foot structure will house both office and retail space, with the larger one-acre site seeing the creation of a parking lot with 47 vehicle spaces and a small amount of bike parking space.
When work will begin on the project has not yet been announced.
