Shopping Center Proposal Worries Residents
Residents of the town of Crowley are worried that the shopping center Hertz Corp. has proposed to build on Burlingham Road will destroy the small town feel of their quiet community. More than 20 residents spoke against the proposal at a town board meeting held on Monday.
“I moved here from the city to escape this kind of development,” said Tyrone Devlin, who lives near the proposed construction site. ”The traffic and crowds this shopping center will bring is exactly what we don't want here.”
The shopping center would be more than 600,000 square feet of commercial space, including a movie theater, department store, family restaurant, and several smaller retail shops.
The town council will vote on the proposal on Monday, March 16 after a thorough environmental evaluation of the construction site is conducted over the weekend.
