Silverton lands dialysis clinic as 2nd project

SILVERTON — The city is launching its second development project this year, which shows the business potential of this northeastern Cincinnati suburb, said David Waltz, city administrator.
Mr. Waltz said ground will be broken about June 1 on an outpatient kidney dialysis clinic.
The Gambro Health Care Facility of Silverton will be built on Silverton Avenue at the northeastern section of the municipal parking lot.
“All plans have been prepared and submitted to the building commission,” Mr. Waltz said. “I think because we will be opening up the CVS superstore around July 1 shows what the potential of business development is out here.”
The clinic is expected to open in late fall. Preliminary plans show that it will have about five doctors and employ about 10 to 15 people.
The clinic will become a part of the main Silverton business dis trict, just a block from the intersection of Plainfield and Montgomery roads.
The CVS store is being built on the site of the old Grafton's Restaurant, along Montgomery Road, a block from the Plainfield and Montgomery roads intersection. Grafton's had operated in Silverton 68 years.
CVS bought the property and tore down the old English Black Tudor style restaurant in January after auctioning off its equipment.
“Many of the nostalgic sites are being replaced by newer development,” Mr. Waltz said.
“I am impressed with what we have been able to do in developing businesses since we hired the municipal administrator,”said Councilman Michael Hagen. “It helps to have a full-time administrator in city hall. This way people know there is one person to go to.”
Mr. Waltz brings to the city a background in development, having been the regional director of development for Shelby County before coming to Silverton.
