I think what would make this neighborhood better would be adding more security. As far as camera’s, better locks etc.

As part of the new development, there will be continual management and maintenance and foliage to make sure adequate lighting is provided throughout the community at all times.

Having a bathroom that has grab bars, for the shower and toilet area. First floor bedroom and laundry room. I'm 63 and my disability is walking and standing. Climbing stairs are a real challenge for me.

Considerate neighbors and parents controlling their kids. My son cannot go outside without being bullied.
