There will be an extension to Avian Way and Apple Blossom Blvd. They will intersect. There will also be a new cul de sac off Avian called Pear Tree Court. Roads and utilities were scheduled to begin at the end of June, 2006. So far, nothing has happened.
How much will this cost the rest of the residents in the town? How many more children will be added to the school district? Will the developer burden the cost of the expansion or will the people who already live there?

Uncontrolled residential development is the issue, not big box stores.
Well, it seems this project has hit a brick wall. I really wonder if anyone knows anything about it.
Almost.. If the big box stores are paying what thier assessments should be I they are fine. Those assessments should cover the wear and tear they create on the infrastructure they use. You saw that crap the developers got away with in amherst? Paying very little for the million dollar buildings they have here. It's pointless.Originally Posted by therising
When they get "incentives" there's NO POINT to having them. If they are in my town I would rather look at trees than a development who is not paying into the cost of the community. Does that make sense?

As far as impact to the community: the Town Board and planning Board is supposed to review all the info provided to them by the developers.This includes Traffic,environmental and average family size/number of new residents & so on.
I believe the average they use is 2.5 children( who has a .5 child?), usually they include number of trips created daily into and out of each subdivision area.
In the case of the subdivision that the County won't allow Lancaster to be the lead(responsible ) agency , its because of the builders/planners and Town Board/Planning Boards failure to truly provide accurate info about environmental and impact issues ( about time).
As far as cost of schools and others services. Of course the Town and Village taxpayers will carry the load - today and in the future .
The Town has repeatedly ignore residents concerns about the long term impacts.They only care about re-elections and fund raising. Their main drive according to Giza is to "Increase tax base" so more people can share the tax burden = Translation - more buildings more permit revenue - more houses more taxable properties - higher values, justifies raising assessments of others - higher assessments more tax produced income for them(Town Board) to spend.
The larger the community - the more employees can be employed to provide services for the residents. Jobs also broadens the power base of those in control. The more party loyal employees you have , the larger straggle hold you create at election time.
#Dems play musical chairs + patronage and nepotism = entitlement !
we read one report about falling population in our area and then people worried about increased pressure on streets and schools from new developments. don't they counter act each other and break even. as some people leave they have to be replaced. those that left were in areas they did not like so it seems to make sense to build other newer places that people might want to stay at .so whats the story are we losing people or are we growing so fast we have to stop building. the census says we are losing do they lie
One good thing about growing old is your secrets are safe with your friends they can't remember them either
Bullitt, cut the bull****. Another words plain and simple you have a major conflict of interest going on here. You have the politicians getting a good grease job at the expense of the environment and the residents thereof. SAY IT SAY IT SAY it say it!!!!Originally Posted by bullitt4248
Its plain and simple,
Update - the area that was supposed to be Phase IV has been declared wetlands. Doesn't look like this project is ever going to happen now.
