PHOENIX—The Chandler City Council has approved the Planned Area Development zoning request and site plan approval for Chandler Airport Center, a general industrial park at the southwest corner of Germann and Cooper Roads in Chandler.

Meritex Chandler, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Minneapolis-based Meritex, will develop Chandler Airport Center in association with Tempe-based Metro Commercial Properties, who will provide development and property management services to Meritex for the three building industrial park. The Meritex/Metro development team has engaged the brokerage team of Chris McClurg and Ken McQueen, principals with Lee & Associates, to handle leasing for the property.

McClurg tells GlobeSt.com, “The tenant profile has a high-tech, general warehouse and manufacturing component and also may include some light industrial, and parking is ample enough to support a strong employee base. The liberal clear height, excellent loading and ample parking will accommodate a wide variety of users. We're trying to fulfill a demand for this product type within this sub market to keep up with demand.”
