Evansville and Union will gather on Thursday at 6PM at Evansville City Hall and go over issues of immediate growth. The Observer has reposted for this occasion, the original speech of Doug Zweizig on June 15, 2005 at the Evansville Smart Growth meeting. As a Union resident, Doug set some tough standards as to what a planning process should consist of. Evansville has made some constructive changes as a result of the speech and also the input of citizens. Thursday night will be an opportunity to apply those same standards to the current plans of Union.
Even a cursory review of MLS listings show that at least 300 acres near the Golf Course are slated for residential development. This is land that Union had been very passionately preserving for agricultural. Now they are very passionate about residential. Thursday nights meeting will be a good time to get out the checklists and see what homework has been done. See you at the meeting.
