After what some perceived as a "rush" to rezone the former Colonial Golf and Country Club for commercial use, the drafting of a development agreement about what could be built on Harahan's largest green space is slow to come. Mayor Vinny Mosca said it might not come before City Council until March, and John Georges, the property's co-owner, said tenants for the space are unlikely to be identified until the summer.
The developmental agreement, if approved by the City Council, will prohibit what could be built on the former golf course, set out how development would meet drainage and traffic concerns and determine the schedule of construction,- among other concerns.
