Although one county commissioner, Chris Endresen, remained opposed, the county has given thumbs up to plans that will allow for an urban village to be built up around the existing project, McCormick Woods, which was begun in 1986.
Linda Niebanck, president of McCormick Land Co., tells GlobeSt.com the concept for the expanded community (McCormick West) will include up to 90-acres (gross) for a business park, ten for neighborhood commercial space, and expand residential numbers to a total of 4,172 homes, including the 1,139 already approved (and partially completed) within McCormick Woods.
The cornerstone of the (ultimately 2,300-acre) development, which many here are calling a "mini city," is the McCormick Woods golf course. Niebanck says the company has permits to add a 200-room full-service hotel, with the intention of creating a destination-resort geared to draw corporate-retreat business. An operator has yet to be inked, but Niebanck offers that McCormick has been talking to Marriott.
