Resident urges CRA not to allow high-rise residences at Plantation General Hospital site
Summary
A resident spoke during public comment asking the CRA not to permit high-rise residences at the former Plantation General Hospital site, saying demolition was underway and a groundbreaking for a new emergency center had occurred.
Dennis Conklin, a resident of 4581 Northwest Court, told the Community Redevelopment Agency during public comment that demolition was underway at the former Plantation General Hospital site and asked commissioners not to allow high-rise residences there.
Conklin said crews had “broke[n] ground for the new, soon to be built, emergency center” and that he had asked whether the existing plant was being demolished; he said he was told that demolition was occurring. He asked the commissioners, “to please do not put high rise residences in that place. Looking into my neighbor's backyards and homes.” Conklin then yielded back the remainder of his three-minute public comment period.
No CRA action followed the public comment during the meeting. The transcript records only the public comment and the chair's subsequent adjournment of the CRA meeting at 6:59 p.m.
