Missouri-based Catholic Healthcare International has been sent back to the drawing board by the Genoa Township Board of Trustees following denials related to a proposed chapel and prayer space.
CHI has been seeking to construct a 6,000 square-foot chapel with other accessory uses in honor of St. Padre Pio on 40 acres located on the west side of Chilson Road, south of Crooked Lake Road. The project, which would also include Stations of the Cross, a mural wall, and nature paths for quiet reflection has been loudly opposed by neighbors in the area.
Residents opposed spoke at multiple online planning commission meetings about the project going against the master plan, traffic issues it could cause, and being a general disruption to their rural lifestyle.
Deputies investigating an Alexander County shooting turned up 350 pounds of marijuana this week.
Alexander County Sheriff Chris Bowman said it is the most marijuana he has seen in one place in 15 years. âItâs always been around, but to find this much quantity at one place, at one time, has just not been found in our county in many many years,â he said.
Two people were shot Tuesday in the Sugar Loaf community. As of Thursday, both victims in the shooting are still hospitalized and in stable condition.
Bowman said the shooting may be linked to a drug deal that went wrong.
