Township trustees have to review and approve the developer’s final plan before any building permits are issued.

It’s planned as a Continuum of Care campus including independent living and memory care.

Individual units in the residential care facility will be around 540 square feet.

The cottages will be over 1400 square feet and have two bedrooms, a full-size kitchen, and a private garage.

Washington Township Board of Trustees voted to approve this for a first-stage development plan and rezoning request in February.

Tonight, they will hear from the developers’ final plan for the project and vote on whether they want to go through with it.

If the final design of this project gets approved, construction is expected to start in late summer and could take about 18 months to build.
