Supervisor Trapnell said that she has been approached by the owners of the Willston Shopping Center with a plan to revitalize, redevelop, and expand the commercial area and to redevelop the Willston Gardens Apartments, which are adjacent to the shopping area. The apartments are in a generally deteriorated condition. These parcels surround the former Willston School, which is currently owned by the Board. The chain of title to the school site contain a reversion clause should the property no longer be used for education purposes. Also adjacent to the shopping center is a parcel which provides ancillary parking for the Seven Corners Shopping Center located across Route 50. These parcels together form an area where general existing conditions, as well as diverse ownership, current development patterns, and other conditions are preventing a proper development of the land.
Right, we need more asphalt and parking lots and certainly a Burger King to replace Willston School and the surrounding apartments. Great idea.
Pave it!
