Joey Garrison reports that Bells Bend landowner Jack May, spurred on by the fairgrounds stalemate, is "months, not a year" away from reintroducing plans to build a scaled-down May Town Center.

“We’re happy to see that the mayor understands the importance of corporate campuses,” May said. “Now that the fairgrounds [redevelopment] may be three or four years away, we’re hopeful he will reconsider his interest in a project in Bells Bend versus allowing it to stay as it is, which will ultimately be what it is zoned for: a 750-home subdivision.”
