This is huge (I think that's 144 units total), and I hadn't heard of it before now. Anyone know more about it? I just stumbled on it at the Village of Dryden website.

1) How is that in the village? 2) Isn't that land owned by William George Agency?
Or maybe my Mapquest is off. . . . There was talk for a while about a housing development diagonally across from the HS. That talk went away for several years, but perhaps it's back.
It's already got a low-income housing credit application in the works, because 48 of the units will fit that jurisdiction: http://www.dhcr.state.ny.us/Programs/LIHC/UF2010_LIHC&SLIHC_ApplicationsReceived.htm
The landlord looks to be a Rochester firm.
I'm still confused about the village's jurisdiction over this address. Any news?
It is, indeed, across from the high school. The owner is Rochester based Conifer Realty recently in local headlines with the development of Lindeman Creek in the Town of Ithaca.
My main question (aside from their federal subsidy and their affect on wetlands on the property) is how they will get water. As you know the village has had a moratorium on water connections for years because of the health department warnings of insufficient quantity of water. The only answer I've heard is that "It will be two years 'til they need to connect and maybe by then..."
