The local paper ran an article last Wednesday about a company requesting to build an assisted living/memory care facility across highway 21 from our house. The 20 acres is currently being used as a cow pasture. Last night the Planning Board held their Monday night meeting during which time they would vote on the request. I dropped Bob off at his ham radio class at 5:45 then went on to the meeting to hear more. Representatives from the builders and the facility where there to answer questions.
From the drawings and layout of the one story building I doubt very much it will have any effect on us. It will be a welcome addition to the tax base and local jobs plus give the elderly residents who have retired here other options when they can no longer live at home.
I am putting together small parts bags this morning. This afternoon I have my shift at the Friends bookstore.
