At a recent Daphne Alabama Utilities Board meeting, North Winding Brook residents voiced their opinions regarding the board’s plans to develop a portion of the 19 acres of savanna that borders the east side of Village Drive.  The proposed plans are to take four acres to build three home sites, leaving the remaining 15 acres to be preserved as wetlands.  However, local residents are opposed to any development, pointing out at least two major outcomes if even the proposed portion of the land was to be developed; these two outcomes include possible flooding to neighboring watersheds or yards, and a negative effect on the area’s ecosystem.

The Daphne Utilities Board are giving the decision some more time to become better aware of possible effects and to gain input from local residents.
