Body

The decision to go forward with the development of the Anderson Towne Crossing will have to undergo a final vote.

The Mount Pleasant city council sat for nearly four hours, listening to concerned residents, legal experts and city officials. With the changes that the Anderson Towne Crossing would bring, many concerns were brought before the council.

The biggest issues brought up were the potential housing costs of the plan, job growth, a new emergency care center and certain wording in the contract.

At the end of the session, the council made the decision to table the agenda item for the next meeting, in order to have more time to look over the details and re-negotiate terms in the contract with Jon Anderson’s company.
