Frederick elderly housing plan faced tax hurdle
Mayor Ronald N. Young said state officials question the viability of a 129 unit elderly housing project behind the Frederick Shopping Center due to Frederick City's high taxes. Ken Roberts from Land Development Associates notes the tax rate is the highest among jurisdictions with city owned properties. Developers stress the project has HUD and state approval but must prove economic viability. CRC Development Corporation leads the plan with optimistic notes that construction may start on schedule.
