Sometimes, waiting is the hardest part.
“I love being here and I love living here but if I have to move, I am not trying to just keep sitting here waiting,” said Racheal Hoefker who has been waiting for answers since January.
“I don’t want to just sit here when I really need to do a lot of work around here but I don’t want to do it if it’s for nothing,” Hoefker said.

“I still have questions about the plan, the process, and the lack of transparency and engagement from the development team,” said Joe Higgins, a neighbor in the mapped out development area.
