The City of Novi is moving to award a $263,200 contract to JMK Engineering, Inc. for commissioning and building envelope consulting services on its Public Safety Building Project, funded from a 2025 public safety bond program. Plante Moran Realpoint (PMR), serving as owner’s representative, ran a formal RFP to five qualified commissioning firms, shortlisted two, and then expanded the scope to include building envelope consulting under a single contract. The Selection Advisory Group—comprised of public safety leadership, the CIO, PMR, and legal counsel—unanimously recommends JMK Engineering, with services to be formalized under an AIA C103-2015 agreement after legal review. This award locks in the commissioning/envelope consultant but signals a large, multi-year public safety facilities capital program backed by 120000000 in bond proceeds, implying forthcoming design, construction, technology, and specialty consulting procurements. Vendors can position around integration with commissioning/envelope scopes, future trade packages, specialty systems (MEP, controls, roofing, envelope systems, IT), and potential subconsulting or follow-on work as the public safety facilities program advances.

The Planning Commission’s draft resolution approves, subject to Council’s zoning and development agreement actions, a Site Plan Permit, Conditional Use Permit, and Sign Permit for converting a vacant 2,662 sq ft former Umpqua Bank at 11 Ridge Road into a cannabis retail and delivery facility. The project involves interior tenant improvements, ADA upgrades, minor exterior changes, new landscaping planters, and replacement of existing monument and wall signs, with 17 on-site parking spaces retained. Embarc, as the applicant, will invest nearly 2 million in buildout and an additional 3 million in working capital, and must secure building permits for interior work and ADA/path-of-travel upgrades. While the primary operator and construction investment are decided, there is room for subcontractors and vendors in areas like ADA design, interior fit-out, security hardware, odor control/ventilation, and ongoing facility maintenance as the site is re-activated as a high-traffic commercial use.

The Historic Preservation Commission agenda includes "Updates on the USGC Station," indicating ongoing attention to a specific historic site (likely a former U.S. Coast Guard station). While the agenda does not detail the nature of the updates, such discussions often precede or accompany planning for stabilization, restoration, adaptive reuse, or interpretive projects at historic facilities. No project scope, budget, or vendor is defined yet, so this appears to be an informational and planning-stage discussion. For architects, engineers, preservation specialists, and interpretive design firms, this is a signal that the site is active on the commission’s radar and may generate future capital or planning work. A next conversation would probe whether they anticipate feasibility studies, condition assessments, or design services for the USGC Station in the near term.

The City of Ligonier Redevelopment Commission has issued a legal notice that it will open and consider written offers to purchase approximately 31.04 acres of city-owned real property on W. Perry Road in Noble County, Indiana. The parcel is currently zoned Agriculture, located near the Ligonier Industrial Park and a tract owned by the Ligonier Industrial Development Corporation, indicating potential for future industrial or commercial development. Written purchase offers will be opened during a public meeting on July 8, 2026 at 9:00 a.m., and an offering sheet and parcel map are available at the Ligonier City Clerk’s office. This is an active real estate disposition that can attract developers, engineers, and related professional services looking to propose site development concepts, infrastructure improvements, or design-build projects tied to the eventual use of the land. A practical next step is to engage the Redevelopment Commission or City Clerk to understand price expectations, allowable uses under current zoning, and any incentives or infrastructure commitments the city may consider.
Any bid submitted by a trust must identify each beneficiary and the settlor empowered to revoke or m...
