If You Build It, They Will Come

The proposed development of 1200 East-West Hwy. cleared another hurdle this morning at a meeting of the county planning board. Members voted to approve Centex Homes' land-use plans for a 14-story, 247-unit apartment building on East-West Highway at Blair Mill Road. The approval nudges the project one step closer to receiving its construction permit. No word yet on when the requisite house-warming party or barbeque will be held.
