The rezoning of a 35.53-acre development for senior citizens on Creekside Trail, which includes an activity center and independent residential cottages, was approved by the Kyle City Council earlier this month, but not without controversy.
Sarah Files, owner of Life’s Journey Hospice & Palliative Care, applied for a Planned Unit Development (PUD) in January. According to documents submitted to the city, the initial construction would include 14 residential cottages ranging from 800 to 1,100 square feet and a 10,000 square foot community center and administrative building.
The community center will have a quilting room, an art studio, a business center, a dining area and a commercial kitchen. It’s going to be a nice place where senior citizens can just be with others, Files said.
