Rocky Hill warehouse complex proposed

A site plan for a new warehouse development on Brook Street in Rocky Hill.
A Cheshire-based real estate investor is proposing a new four-building warehouse complex totaling 120,000 square feet in Rocky Hill, which would require a zone change from office park to business park.
Property owner, applicant and developer Brook Street Rocky Hill LLC, headed by principal Miodrag Delmic, has submitted a site plan application to the Rocky Hill Planning and Zoning Commission for properties at 553, 565 and 595 Brook St.
Delmic bought the three parcels in August 2021, for just over $1 million.
Delmic is proposing to build four new warehouses on the site: two will be 30,000 square feet with six bays each; one will be 20,000 square feet with four bays; and one will be 40,000 square feet with eight bays.
The warehouses are being built on speculation as their uses have not been identified, Delmic said.
Miodrag Delmic and his wife Dajana have been on a buying spree of mid-sized office and industrial properties since late 2021.
The couple live in Rocky Hill and run bulk ammunition vendor Target Sports USA out of a Cheshire industrial property. The online ammo store has been the Delmics primary business, but the couple has been diversifying, investing heavily in commercial real estate, including purchases in Windsor, Wethersfield and West Hartford.
A zone change for the Rocky Hill properties would be required as the area is now zoned for an office park and would be changed to a business park.
The parcels total nearly 13 acres, two of which are vacant. The 553 Brook property contains a two-story building and garage, both of which will be removed to make way for the development.
The complex would have 187 parking spaces, 17 of which would be ADA accessible.
Two driveways, one on the far west and another on the far east of the property, would allow access from Brook Street. The parcel is near an apartment complex, a BJs warehouse store and Connecticut Department of Transportation facility.
The developer presented the plans to the town Open Space and Conservation Commission and received approval.
