No one developer should get it all. We need shops, department stores, grocery stores, schools, saloons and limited housing.
$38M or even $50M is too little.

I agree with majority of the comments made so far. There are more negative reviews than positive that i have heard regarding DR Horton. I live in the area as well and would much prefer more commercial than residential go up in the area especially in that location where the land is. There are already other areas down and around Beulah road where development for housing is taking place. The area can really more commercial businesses without drastically increasing living in the area. We moved out here to get away from heavy traffic. Maybe it’s just me with that way of thinking but it would help alot of people to get commercial businesses instead so that we don’t have to go deep in town for everything.

Nothing should be built on the site until the Beulah Rd/I-10 interchange is complete. Nine Mile Rd doesn’t need another 10 years of dump trucks and concrete trucks tearing up the road surface. We went through that with the construction of Navy Federal once already.
Take the time to sort out all the bids that come in, go for quality over cost. Shoddy construction will lead to rapid deterioration. Top of the line occupants leave to be replaced with cut rate businesses and homeowners sell out to rental companies that barely maintain the properties. Anticipate drainage issues and traffic problems.

Bergosh said this morn that 3 more parties are interested so 38mil might turn into 50+mil like councilman May wants.. I agree @ronald.. Breland is a good choice. Look at Town Madison outside of Huntsville. If they get the industry that Triumph fund requires then they get almost 18mil in infrastructure and thats huge. Glad to see the Council wanting to move forward at a faster clip to get this done and make Beulah the most envied community of all Escambia Co.

People wake up look who is in charge. What is the difference between getting a favor or padded pocket.
