💰Financial impact

A 10-12 year build-out of up to 1,500 homes will grow the city's tax base, though sewer extension costs will be shared with the developer.

Future residents get new housing options, and nearby neighborhoods gain road and trail connections plus proximity to a school and Smith Park.

⚠️Who could be affected

Neighbors near the Connot Road extension and wooded area may see tree and habitat impacts, including around an active bald eagle nest.
