Miles Brothers Get Green Light for Rezoning at Glassworks Business Park

CLARION, Pa. (EYT) – The request from Miles Brothers, LLC. to rezone a plot of land between Robinwood Drive and Bond and Gemmell Drives for expansion of its $39 million Glassworks Business Park was approved by the Clarion Council Borough on Tuesday evening.

The approval grants the rezoning of a 35-acre parcel located behind the old Owens-Illinois Glass plant from Residential 1 to Commercial 1.

Glassworks plans to convert a 28.5-acre Brownfield site formerly housing the Owens-Illinois Glass Plant into a compound with seven building pads ready for business development. One of the “pads” already has a tentative contract for five acres and a proposed medical marijuana grow facility.

That site is already zoned for commercial use.

“We purchased an additional 30 acres behind the park that was formerly zoned industrial. Sometime close to five years ago that was rezoned residential,” said Ryan Miles of Miles Brothers.

According to borough officials, the property was rezoned residential in 2011.
