Cedar Rapids council weighs housing plan with East Post extension
Cedar Rapids officials move to approve a 73 lot Oak Ridge Estates development south of Mount Vernon Road SE with a central hole large enough for a future East Post Road SE extension. The council also revises the plat to include 38th Street SE through the site while delaying any bridge decision across the Cedar River. A bridge study remains ongoing with findings due later this year.
