The Columbus-based business was dealt what one company official called a “significant setback” earlier this month when Centerville rejected its request to replace wood with vinyl as its predominant façade material.

Treplus cited the rising cost of lumber since the coronavirus pandemic in seeking the change to vinyl.
Centerville officials had earlier “concluded that vinyl is inconsistent with the city’s comprehensive plan and the Cornerstone Development Agreement,” city records show.
Council’s decision came after legal advice that the vinyl amendment would set “precedent” for Phase IV of Cornerstone of Centerville North and a neighboring developer said it would hurt property values.
