Developer looks to bring more affordable housing to north Cheyenne | Local News

CHEYENNE ­– An Oregon developer is looking to bring more subsidized apartments to the north side of the city. Commonwealth Development Corporation is pushing plans for a two-building, 41-unit development at 4306 Dell Range Blvd ., which is just east of College Drive and north of Dell Range. The project received approval Thursday night for a conditional use on the property from the Cheyenne Board of Adjustment. The development still needs to be rezoned and annexed into the city by the City Council, since the property is in a county pocket. The council’s Public Services Committee will hear testimony on those changes Tuesday. The introduction of the three-story complex comes on the heels of a debate over a larger income-restricted development about 2 miles away. Summit Housing Group got its rezoning request approved during Monday night’s City Council meeting for property east of Converse Avenue between Dell Range and Storey boulevards. Nearby homeowners had voiced their opposition ...

Major development project in Village of East Davenport turned away

DAVENPORT - This valuable wedge of land at the entrance of the Village of East Davenport has been empty for the last seven years. Local businessman Gregg Ontiveros has promised to put a major investment there, "I give you my word you will not be disappointed in this project." However, Davenport's Zoning Board voted otherwise. "Looking at it strictly statutory I believe we have some problems with passing this," said Chairman, Cathy Hart. Ontiveros gave his second and he says final pitch to the city Thursday night . His proposal is to build a five story apartment building that includes a restaurant, retail, and a rooftop pool at the corner of River Drive and Mound Street. However, there's one problem. To protect the area's architecture, the city says buildings in the Village cannot be built to be taller than three stories. "A 60-foot building in a very historic area of Davenport, which lacks a lot of history in preservation, it is totally just ou...

Kenny "Kiwi" Herring, was shot to death by police officers Tuesday after allegedly stabbing one of them. Family members and friends said Herring was a transgender woman. The following night, demonstrators held a candlelight vigil and protest in her honor, beginning at a community garden that honors transgender people .

Death toll in Spain attacks rises to 14

BARCELONA, Spain (AP) -- Catalan authorities say a woman injured in an attack in a popular seaside town south of Barcelona has died. The woman, who wasn't named, is the first fatal victim of the attack late Thursday in Cambrils, about 130 kilometers (80 miles) south of Barcelona. It came hours after a van slammed into pedestrians on a busy Barcelona promenade , killing 13 people and injuring over 100 others. Police on Friday shot and killed five people wearing fake bomb belts who staged a car attack in a seaside resort in Spain's Catalonia region hours after a van plowed into pedestrians on a busy Barcelona promenade , killing at least 13 people and injuring over 100 others. Authorities said the back-to- back vehicle attacks — as well as an explosion earlier this week elsewhere in Catalonia— were connected and the work of a large terrorist group . Three people were arrested, but the driver of the van used in the Barcelona attack remained at large and the manhunt intensi...
