York supervisors OK senior living center on Victory

Image
The York County Board of Supervisors approved rezoning and a special use permit for three parcels near the intersection of Victory Boulevard and Route 17 to allow construction of a senior living facility . The vote at Tuesday’s meeting was 4-1 in favor, with board Chairwoman Sheila Noll voting against rezoning. Noll said she supported the project’s purpose, design and economic impact, but could not support its location, given the area’s traffic. The 9.2 acres of land was rezoned from high density residential to general business. The developer, Georgia- based Landbridge Acquisitions , is planning 170 age- restricted living units , including independent living , assisted living and memory care units . The facility is to be called the Phoenix at Yorktown. More than half of the housing units will be independent living apartments .

New Yorkers Are Fleeing To Los Angeles In Droves, Study Shows

NEW YORK, NY — It's one of the oldest rivalries in American migration: New York vs. Los Angeles. For the better part of a century, residents of the nation's two largest metro areas have been defending their chosen kingdom and dismissing the other on an endless loop of judginess between kitty-corner coasts. Ew, the traffic! But the sunshine! But the subway! But the garbage! But the skyline! But the coastline! But the bustle! But the chill! In this tireless war of words, a clear winner has yet to emerge. But it's harder to argue against the numbers. Thousands of working professionals have relocated to Los Angeles County from New York City in the past year and a half, according to a series of monthly "workforce reports" released this spring and summer by the job- networking site LinkedIn (and spotted by LA Weekly). And it's not exactly a two-way street. Since early 2016, according to LinkedIn, around seven or eight out of every 10, 000 site users in LA report...

Orange County church finds higher purpose for unused land: affordable housing and community services

At the ribbon cutting this month for the Wesley Village affordable housing complex in Garden Grove, Laura Archuleta couldn ’t resist referencing Joni Mitchell ’s 1970 environmental protest “Big Yellow Taxi.” Built on underused land that’s part of the Garden Grove United Methodist Church campus on Main Street, Wesley Village offered Archuleta , president of the nonprofit community organization Jamboree Housing Corp ., a chance to riff on one of Mitchell’s most famous lyrics. Where Mitchell sang “They paved paradise/And put up a parking lot,” Archuleta told about 300 people packed into the steamy church sanctuary on a hot afternoon that “Today we are going to learn how a group of dedicated organizations and individuals re-purposed a parking lot and put up a paradise.” Then she and others who spoke, including a single mom with six children who now reside at Wesley Village , told how the project became reality through a unique collaboration that involved the church, Jamboree and other...
