H&E Equipment Services is set to go before the Planning Commission Monday, seeking approval for a new headquarters complex. The company wants to build a 91,200-square-foot complex on 16 acres of land at Airline Highway and Pecue Lane, according to documents on file with the commission. H&E, which leases and sells heavy equipment, currently has its headquarters on Mead Road, near Interstate 12 and South Sherwood Forest Boulevard. H&E wants to build a two-story, 46,000-square-foot office building at the Airline site, along with a 40,000-square-foot repair shop and showroom and a 3,200-square-foot wash bay. The Planning Commission approved plans for a similar project in 1996, but it was never built. Commissioners have recommended approving this project.
