A Tale of Two Sites

Below is a map that shows the 25-acre site and the 6.91-acre site that was appraised.



Notice how the 6.91-acre site is completely landlocked?

The Town of Chili does not currently own any of the land adjacent to this landlocked site.  The land to the west and north is owned by COMIDA - Wegmans; the land to the east is owned by Perl Land Development Corporation (not The Father's House as stated in the appraisal); and the land to the south is the CSX railroad tracks.

During the public forum of the last two Town Board meetings, residents have asked why the Town of Chili is purchasing this landlocked site.  The Town Board refuses to answer any questions about it.  So much for open government!
