You just may not want to miss this meeting….all of the above information is NOT Street talk…it is factual and taken from the information supplied by the city. I “heard” the meeting will be highly attended by the citizens of Magee especially in the Lakeview Subdivision area. The property that Chris Lane wants to build apartments on “backs up to” Lakeview….these people are not happy…and I can’t blame them. Sure, I am for progress…but I do not want to see more apartments in Magee. Our city needs reasonable housing options. We need houses. I feel if we do not have a strong school, hospital, and available houses…we just can’t grow…but then that is just what I think.
Attend the meeting …or give your opinion on this article…there is a place to post your comments.
I agree. No more apartments!
Magee has over 7 apartments and the residents do not want anymore apartments. I just wish the planning commission will not rezone the property for apartments because the residents are opposed to that.
