already started moving dirt on the edge
of their 45 acre property.

That section is zoned for
commercial business, but they're hoping
council will rezone the remaining area
for high-density residential.

They would like to build high end
apartments and townhomes on the rest of

However, the commercial land will

received a warning from its accrediting
institution. It comes from the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools,
which cites concerns about the

college's operating deficit, deferred
