Another farm lost…
September 15, 2004
In news from another Holland Sentinel article today, Zeeland Township has approved plans for yet another housing development. This one will sit on 35 acres and inlude over 75 homes. The question I pose yet again is, “where do these developers expect the people to come from?” I know the Holland area is growing, or so the census says, but I still do not know where they’re coming from or why. Job growth is not rising at a high rate, if anything, many of the middle class, professional jobs are leaving… How long can we sustain this trend of building new housing on good farmland, for the sake of a few?
