A proposed entertainment center that was expected to host activities like go-karts and bowling is no longer coming to St. Cloud. Instead, a cannabis cultivation facility might take its place at 12 McLeland Road. Trantina Properties had the land rezoned last April to allow an entertainment center to be built. At the time, the company was working with Rice Companies to bring the project to fruition.
On Tuesday night, James Trantina III, Trantina Properties owner, appeared at the St. Cloud Planning Commission meeting.
"We were just gonna do a family project there and just with the economy and with everything going on, we just feel that it's the right fit for that area," Trantina said on Feb. 10 during the meeting.
Trantina told the planning commissioners there's more interest in selling the property to someone to remodel. In an effort to make the facility more appealing to buyers, Trantina requested it be rezoned back to its previous industrial zoning.
