Highland House plans move to two planning commissions
Council sent the matter to the city planning commission and the Lawrence County Planning Commission for review. City zoning officer James Farris said the city commission is expected to take up the issue at the July 1 meeting. The commissions advise while council holds final authority. The Highland House aimed to build a facility for inpatients and outpatients on Grant Street between Highland and East. Feasibility is in doubt amid a weak economy and shifting clientele. Last year council transferred three city lots to the agency and bought the remaining land from the New Castle Community Development Corp. for $65 000. Zoning was changed from R-2 residential to C-1 local commercial to permit the project.
