Information meeting re: Percheron Square tonight, Sept. 3, 6-7

My 2 aldermen, Lisa Mellone and Renee' Lowerr, sent out an email that there will be an information meeting on Percheron Square tonight, from 6-7pm at City Hall in Council Chambers. If you are interested in this development project, this would be a good opportunity for you to find out more. (Sorry this is late, I have been having computer troubles.)

Percheron Square is an AVS project (division of VK Development) and will be located on the former Ruby Farm and WTMJ properties next to Swanson Elementary School. Former plans.

The plans have changed a few times since it first came to the plan commission last June. The fitness and recreation facility is no longer a part of Percheron Square. I believe the fitness / recreation element was touted as being a benefit to the community at the plan commission meeting. I don't know if there now is some sort replacement for that loss. 

The old Ruby Farmstead is still a part of the development plans. 

There will also be a public hearing on the rezoning of the project to a PDD on Tuesday, Sept. 16, 7:45pm, at the beginning of the Common Council meeting.

No surprise, Percheron Square PDD passed first hurdle, or should I say jump

Now Ms. Kyle, you know that Percheron Ghetto is never going to be fully developed anyhow. That's in keeping with the Capital Blights philosophy of "Sell em anything but only build what YOU want to build".

Just another half completed idea. Another blighted meadow to scar the landscape.
