A proposed new development in the Neebing area in Thunder Bay is raising concerns from area residents. They have raised objections on the grounds it would constitute urban sprawl and could exacerbate safety issues to a neighbourhood that is already under-serviced.
According to TBN News Watch, an application was submitted to the city in July to build a 69-home subdivision on a large tract of land near the intersection of Highway 61 and Mountain Road.
If approved, it would create a number of new roads north of the South Neebing Community Centre, with a new connection to the highway across from Mount Forest Boulevard.
