October 2023: What’s Going Up?

Columbia Independent School upper school expansion

One-hundred and fifty-three permits for new roofs and six permits for new townhouses in the East Campus neighborhood were issued by Columbia’s building and site development office in August.

The roofing permits totaled $5.37 million in valuation. Overall, the building and site development office issued 220 permits with a valuation of $33.79 million. The valuation includes a $13.53 million commercial addition — construction of new space and renovations at Columbia Independent School.

In addition, 20 permits were issued for single family residential homes, totaling $8 million in valuation.

Coil Construction is the contractor for the Columbia Independent School building addition at 1801 N. Stadium Blvd. COMO Business Times reported in July that permits for land disturbance, footings, and other pre-build work had been approved earlier and that work was under way. The building permit was issued on August 29, listing a valuation of $13.53 million, which is $3.7 million less than the amount listed on the previous permits.
