RAISIN TWP. — A developer is seeking approval to build 117 single-family homes just northwest of the corner of Sutton Road and Green Highway.

The homes would be about 1,600 square feet, on lots of one-half acre or more, and would sell for about $300,000, William Nicholson of D.R. Park Properties told the Raisin Township Planning Commission on Feb. 13. The development would be a mix of spec homes and built-to-order.

Nicholson told the Lenawee Voice he would like to start construction this spring.

“Demand is there right now. New homes built are selling quickly,” he said.

The development already has roads in place. The roads are called Sutton Place Drive, Wind Ridge Drive, Century Oak Drive, Orchard Ridge Drive, and Fawn Hill Drive.

Planning commissioners’ questions focused mainly on access to drainage areas. The commission tabled any action on the proposal.
