As you may or may not know, the property adjacent to Major Drive at Village Drive is the proposed location for a Housing Tax Credit Multi-Family Unit Apartment Complex called Westfield Senior Village. Your Board of Directors President, as well as Management, is in opposition of this development.
Please review the attached information.
