Council says yes to Mystic Heights
After answering a few more questions and clarifying a few points,
Chillicothe's City Council said YES to the proposal to build 100 housing
units on 37 lots that will make up Mystic Heights. The Housing
Development is for the nearly 14 acres of prison property north of Third
Street. The developer still needs
to provide a plot proposal and received approval from the Planning and
Zoning Board before construction begins.
RFP's For South Side Property
With the property North of Third Street moving into the development phase,
the City will soon advertise for Requests for Proposals to develop the 44
plus acres south of third Street. Mayor Chuck Haney says they will
follow a similar process to what was done for the North side.
He says all proposals will be heard before decisions are made.
