In 1996, Pohlson and Ryan began the Northern California division of Brookfield Residential Properties , a Calgary- based company that operates in nearly a dozen locales in the U.S. and Canada. Local roots Ryan grew up in Santa Rosa’s Bennett Valley just over the hill from University District. His father, John Ryan Sr., was in the real estate and mortgage business, which offered the opportunity for his son to work summer construction jobs . Ryan’s brothers James and Kevin continue to operate the family business, Ryan Mortgage in Santa Rosa. But after graduating from St. Mary’s College, Ryan went to work specializing in real estate for a large accounting firm . He later spent a decade with Los Angeles- based homebuilder KB Home , including a few years for the company in Paris. The company he now leads has 83 employees. It builds about 3,000 homes a year and sells another 4,000 residential lots to other home builders. At University District, while Brookfield has developed the lots and g...

A proposed 92- unit apartment complex on Middlesettlements Road will feature four residential buildings plus a community building, gazebo and playground. The Alcoa Municipal/Regional Planning Commission gave site plan approval to Maryville Hall Apartments on Thursday, days before the Alcoa Board of Commissioners votes on whether to annex the 14.781 acres into the city. The commission will vote on the requested annexation, as well as the proposed zoning and plan of services for the property, at a called meeting at 8:15 a.m. Monday in the Commission Chambers of the Alcoa Municipal Building , 223 Associates Blvd. Although the planning commission recommended in April that Alcoa not annex the property at the intersection of Middlesettlements Road and Robert C. Jackson Drive, city commissioners revisited the issue Aug. 8 after voting in July not to provide fire hydrants to the proposed apartment complex because it is outside the city limits, as is city policy. Sinc...

CHAMPAIGN - When brothers Jeff, Steve and Mike Hartman went into the real estate development and management business together, they combined more than the initials of their first names. They also merged everything their father taught them about the construction business and all their mother taught them about family loyalty in their three enterprises, JSM Apartments, JSM Development and JSM Management. Under the JSM umbrella, the Hartmans now own and manage 700 apartments and 114,000 square feet of commercial space in Champaign-Urbana, including the new Technology Plaza apartment/retail/office complex in Campustown. And they have more developments on the way. Already started are a new apartment/retail complex on Gregory Street in Urbana, near the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, and a new retail center on South Neil Street in Champaign, where Hillcrest Lumber used to be. The Hartmans say they work well together in business, running things jointly and never undertakin...

Bruce Chatterton moved to Meridian from Boise more than four years ago. The “room to grow” that is Meridian’s essence made him want to live and work there. Now the city’s community development director , Chatterton says it’s also been “fun seeing a small, somewhat quiet downtown become a place people want to hang out.” Meridian still has plenty of room to spread out, and that’s good, because its population is booming. It was the 13th-fastest-growing city in the U.S. last year. And it’s not just about Meridian. The growth is changing the whole Treasure Valley , affecting traffic, housing, health care, education and retail. The 2016 U.S. Census estimates put Meridian ’s population at nearly 96,000. The Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (Compass) estimates today ’s population at just more than 98,000. That’s a tenfold jump since 1990.   The growth seems unlikely to look to slow anytime soon, says Compass planner and demographics specialist Carl Miller , who lives in Meri...

A vote in support of a controversial 114-unit, five- story apartment complex next to Forsyth Park could be reversed this week — or area residents hoping the project is blocked could just get their hopes dashed for a second time. One Savannah City Council member is now having second thoughts about rezoning the project site bounded by Drayton Street , East Bolton Street , Abercorn Street and East Bolton Lane . After voting to approve Delray Ventures’ rezoning request for the project on Aug. 3, Savannah Alderman Tony Thomas announced on Facebook the next day that he plans to call for the 5-3 vote to be reconsidered during Thursday’s meeting. Thomas said Monday that he wants to hear more information about the project and see if the developer would be open to reducing the scale of the building, which he now believes is too big for the area. “I’ve never ever called for reconsideration of a vote up until now because I have reservations and am not afraid to go out and limb and reconsider...
