Meeting tonight on Boston Heights development dispute

By Beacon Journal staff report

The Boston Heights Village Council will hold a special meeting at 7 tonight to discuss settling a lawsuit brought by a developer who wants to build on the former Boston Hills Country Club property.

Boston Hills Property Investment sued the village last year after residents filed referendum petitions to overturn the council's approval of a commercial and retail complex on the former course.

The company owns about 160 acres at the site, located at state Route 8 and Hines Hill Road.

The proposed settlement allows the company to build on the property, while keeping 60 acres as open space. Boston Hills Property Investment has plans to build retail, hospital and office facilities there.

John T. McLandrich, the attorney for the village, said the settlement includes many compromises, including zoning, environmental and greenspace issues.

''I think it's a good, appropriate compromise of the dispute,'' he said.

A telephone message seeking comment was left with the company's attorney.
