Resthaven needs final approval of the project concept by the planning commission before it can seek financing. Last week, the commission tabled the matter to obtain more information from developers, but alsopraised the project. The state also requires that three-quarters of the housing be sold before construction begins.
If approved, Cottage Grove would have 34 cottages, 26 condominium cottages set in neighborhoods with 87 apartments. Prices for the cottages would be in the $225,000 range, with a requirement they be resold to Resthaven when no longer in use by the buyer.
"We are calling it a Community for Healthy Aging," Resthaven Patrons President Charles Vander Broek says. "We sent out 8,000 surveys to see what the seniors of Holland wanted and designed the project to meet their needs."
The planning commission tabled until January a senior residential, assisted-living and nursing care facility being proposed by Tendercare of Michigan on five acres at 1221 E. 16th St. Tendercare of Michigan, which operates 39 nursing and hospital facilities in the state, has proposed a 30,000-sf, 90 bed, nursing care home. The company is seeking a rezoning on the property from agriculture to planned residential development.
