Townhome project clears Wells Highway hurdle

Some 9.75 acres on the S-P Wells Highway at Seneca may be used for 85 townhouses–the result of a vote last night by the city planning commission.  Planning commission votes are subject to city council approval, but last night there was no public opposition to allow the property owners to go forth with their plans.  On property owned by a local couple and two others in Seattle, Washington, the Wells Highway location is recommended for a zoning change from office commercial/highway commercial to RM-16.  A Greenville architect said the projects fits Seneca’s land use plan, and further predicted it will provide, as he put it, “nice townhomes here.”
