Henderson asks BLM to sell land in western part of city

The Henderson City Council unanimously approved a zoning ordinance that will allow an assisted living facility project to move forward.

The project — a 70-unit assisted living center at Horizon Ridge Parkway and Mission Drive — drew criticism from neighbors for its size.

Ward 1 Councilwoman Michelle Romero said she is working with the developer and neighbors to find room for compromise. After a planning commission meeting, the developer made some concessions on the project, such as removing one of the three floors nearest a group of existing homes.

Romero said Monday that a meeting between the neighbors and the developer is scheduled for Oct. 30.
