In a recent government meeting, officials discussed a proposed development project known as Twinkle Acres, which aims to transform a 40-acre property near Bloxburg into a resort-style facility. The project, presented by planners John Ford and Steve Lazar, includes plans for lodging, dining, and recreational amenities such as pools and sports courts.

The proposal also encompasses a separate application for cultivation and retail components, which has been in the pipeline for several years. This aspect of the project would involve on-site cultivation, a commercial nursery, and facilities for extraction and processing, alongside employee lodging.

During the meeting, concerns were raised regarding the proximity of the development to personal properties, leading one supervisor to recuse themselves from the discussion. The planning team emphasized the importance of community input and transparency as they move forward with the project.

The meeting concluded with a motion to continue discussions on the Twinkle Acres project, highlighting the ongoing efforts to balance development with community interests. Further updates are anticipated as the planning commission reviews the proposals.
