On Tuesday,3/20/2018, the Rock Hill BOA members are voting yay or nay for a high density housing project that is being proposed for our neighborhood. The request by the builder, McKelvey Homes, is to squeeze in ten 300,000-$500,000 homes into a small parcel of land that sits back off of Hudson Ave, just north of El Dorado Ct. & Hudson Ave intersection. This online petition will be sent to our Mayor & all Alderpersons that have been elected to represent the citizens of Rock Hill. Please sign & let them know that this project is wrong for our city, wrong for our neighborhood kiddos that walk to school along Hudson, and wrong for the mature tree canopy & diverse wildlife in Rock Hill. Fewer homes built in that space means less water runoff, and a more suitable construction for our neighborhood.
I question why so many homes? This seems very cramped and opens the door to legitimate concerns about traffic flow and environmental impact to surrounding neighbors. Development can be good; this one though seems to be a tad much.
