A crowd of people turned up at the Fort Howe hotel to hear more about a report proposing development for Rockwood Park. Joan Pearce is Chair of Friends of Rockwood park and tells CHSJ News the city has really fallen short by not clarifying where the boundaries of the Park are and that is crucial.
Pearce says the other concern is there is something else driving this need for development in the park when a man across the street wants to build 135 homes.
Pearce says she and a lot of the people who attended the meeting, feel that the study proposes five story apartment buildings and commercial development that don’t belong in or near Rockwood Park.
