I was looking for the original plan / renderings for this project but can't seem to locate them. I can assure you that looked much better than what we now have.
Perhaps more concerning than the selection process is how OCURA allowed this project to change significantly after it was chosen and then let the developers miss repeated "final deadlines" without penalty, re-opening the property to other developers or going through any sort of formal review process.
I have the meeting minutes when all this was going and JV Bullard would just report on the status, call Henderson by his first name like he was a drinking buddy, and just let him carry on.
This is what really scares me about the Overholser Green project... They selected it and Wiggin immediately expressed concern about being able to sell such expensive units. The whole reason it was chosen (supposedly) was because of it's architecture and tie-ins with Heritage Hills. What do you bet that will all change down the road, and all to the advantage of the developer and not the community?
