The City Center of Eagle Mountain is seeing more commercial growth than it has since the city was founded in 1996. City center has recently seen the opening of a Gas Station at the Flag Roundabout located at the intersection of Eagle Mountain Blvd and Pony Express. The new Holiday Gas station opened on Nov 16, 2016 with a ribbon cutting after its eight month construction. This new gas station brings the total number of gas stations in Eagle Mountain to three (3). The gas station was the first commercial project approved and completed in the City Center area. There are an additional three commercial projects that have been approved by the City Council located within walking distance of the new gas station.
On October 4, 2016 the City Council unanimously approved a 1 acre site along East side of Ira Hodges Scenic Parkway. The location will be the future home of Gotta Dance Studio. Gotta Dance is currently serving the Eagle Mountain area from the business owners home. Gotta Dance is a performing arts studio for ages 18 months and up. Dance classes include: Jazz, Ballet, Modern, Creative, Hip Hop, Break Dance, Tap, and Tumbling. Scot Hazard was the applicant for the building.
On September 6th, the City Council voted and approved a site map for the Shops at City Center. The site plan is for two 6,000 square foot office buildings located on a 2-acre site south of Eagle Mountain Boulevard and west of Ira Hodges Scenic Parkway. Both of these buildings have drive-thru lanes to allow them to be used for fast food type businesses. The application was submitted by Marlon Hill (MDH Development LLC).
On April 19th, 2016 the City Council approved the Eagle Mountain Commercial plan for putting in the Pony Express Dental Office. The dental office will be located to the south of Eagle Mountain Boulevard and to the west of Ira Hodges Scenic Parkway on a 1.64 acre lot. Marlon Hill was also the applicant for the Eagle Mountain Commercial plan as well.
In the future, these businesses will help supply Eagle Mountain with tax revenue as well as give the residents of City Center some services they have had to drive miles to take advantage of. This is just the start of the developments we will see in the near future in City Center. They will be augmented with the additions to the Cory Wride Memorial park, and the newly approved site for the High School.
