Project proceeds without eminent domain
“Unable to reach an agreement over property needed to begin the $8.8 million Black Rock School expansion, city and school officials are dropping plans to take the site by eminent domain and moving forward with the project anyway.
“We’ve been working with our construction management team as well as Black Rock parents to devise an alternate plan,” said City Councilman Steven Stafstrom, D-130, who is up for re-election in November.
That plan nixes the proposed change of School Street, the small street beside the school, into a cul-de-sac. Instead, the city will pursue making the narrow road a one-way street.”
