Columbus Regional Senior Living, Inc., is in the process of developing a

Continuing Care Retirement Community on 40 acres of property between River Road

and Green Island Drive. The project is scheduled to have 196 Apartment Homes

and Garden Villas

The total cost of construction will exceed $54 million and when fully occupied

will have an annual operation budget in excess of $10 million. The facility

will employ nearly 200 full and part-time staff members.

During the planning and development phase of the project, a request was made by

the Developer to the close off Green Island Drive from the entrance of Gaines

Creek to River Road. A number of Public Meetings were held with the Home

Owners Association of Gaines Creek and the adjacent property owners.

An agreement has been reached that satisfies the Gaines Creek Homeowners

Association, adjacent property owners and City Staff. The request for approval

of the closure and transfer of property will be on Council Agenda for Tuesday
