Apple Valley still waiting for 'village' project to be finished
The developer will ask council members to approve more changes for a downsized project that originally was to be complete this spring. With $2.3 million in public grant money on the line, a key developer in Apple Valley's partly built, much-touted walkable downtown is once again asking city leaders to give the OK for changes to plans for a mix of new housing and retail space. Pedersen Ventures is expected to ask the City Council tonight for the go-ahead to downsize plans for the Village at Founders Circle, a previously approved project at Galaxie Avenue and 153rd Street that hit rough water when the condominium market tanked. The project drew ire from city leaders two years ago when Pedersen asked for -- and got -- permission to lease many of its planned condos instead of selling them.
