A permit for partial demolition at the former Omni Mall has been approved.
The demolition permit was applied for in November 2022, and approved last week. Most of the wait time was for the applicant to make corrections to plans, a permit tracker shows.
According to notes attached to the permit, partial demolition is planned at the former JCPenney space, along with work on some of the parking area. “Because it is attached to the parking, remodeling is required for safety from the parking garage,” a note says.
The estimated cost of the project is listed at $1,147,785.
