DDA director reports developer interest, school-site talks and Esker Landing fish restocking
Summary
Executive Director C. Howard Haas reported meetings with developers about single-family homes (for sale), discussions with Holt Public Schools about potential uses for Hope Middle School, and a partnership to restock fish at Esker Landing Park with DNR measurements.
Executive Director C. Howard Haas told the board he has met with several developers about potential single-family residential projects in the DDA area; he clarified those projects are intended to be homes for sale rather than rental housing. Haas also said he met with Holt Public Schools to discuss possible uses for Hope Middle School and referred substantive questions about that project to Holt Public Schools representative Mike Dunckel; the minutes state the School Board will make the final decision.
Haas reported the DDA has partnered with Delhi Township Parks and Recreation to restock Esker Landing Park with walleye, perch and bluegill. The Department of Natural Resources was contacted to collect fish measurements as part of the project. The minutes do not provide project timelines, funding sources for the restocking, or details about any potential developer proposals.
Board members did not record further votes or directives on these items during the July 28 meeting; the matters were reported under the Executive Director’s report section and may be subject to separate future board action or external approvals.
