A local family that has owned land in the Fassnight neighborhood since the 1940s is proposing to build townhomes. Some neighbors aren't happy.
Moving to city council, density concerns from the neighborhood remain with the 72-unit townhome development in North Springfield.
Even though the Commission rejected the proposed development in a 1-7 vote, ultimate fate of the project lies at Springfield's city council.
Nearby residents voiced concerns about increased traffic and flooding on the small collector streets surrounding the property.
The plan would add a total of 55 new dwelling units off West Talmage Street, across from Watkins Elementary.
