Council pledges support letters for Hilltop Square senior housing conversion
Summary
A presenter sought city support to convert the former Eagle Valley School into 23 affordable senior apartments; the council agreed to write letters of support and contact local representatives.
Verna Toenyan presented a proposal to convert the Eagle Valley School into the Hilltop Square Regional Housing Campus, proposing about 23 apartments for residents aged 55 and older and citing the facility’s existing Hilltop Regional Kitchen, which provides 92,000 meals and 26 jobs. Toenyan described the site as historically designated and framed the project as a way to free homes occupied by seniors for new families.
Council members agreed to provide letters of support and contact local representatives on behalf of the project. The presentation was framed as an informational request to solicit community backing; no formal funding commitment or zoning decision was made at the May 28 meeting.
