Happy that Westbrooke Village Shopping Center sold two days ago at auction. Will be interesting to see who actually is buying it and what their plans are.
One of our illustrious (sarcastic) council members had a whopper of a suggestion a few weeks ago. Apparently a developer wanted to build apartments on the location, but only if the city kicked in $1.5 million dollars cash (not including the possibility of other incentives). Yepper, $1.5 million, and if the city (read that as us, the taxpayers) didn't do it we were showing that we were anti development and future growth.
Fortunately cooler heads prevailed and that idea never went anywhere. We won't mention the council person by name.................not yet anyway :-)
