Luther Turmelle of the Register reports the residents said the project is ill-suited for the area’s wooded surroundings, citing water issues that they say could cause irreparable damage to the neighborhood.

The hearing was the continuation of a meeting that began in March and the PZC has until July 13 to make a decision on the application for the subdivision, according to Turmelle.
