Isbister said land parcels ranging from 20 to
40 acres in size are being considered – both
on town-owned and privately-owned
properties – and he anticipates the site
being finalized by September or October of
this year, with construction then planned to
get startednext summer.
And when it's all completed, he said, the
burgeoning town will have another jewel to
showoff.
“It will be one of the shining points of the
community,” he said. “For people who are
looking for facilities within the community
that they're going to live, they'll see those
things are there for them. And we'll still be
that friendly, welcoming community that
we are now.”
