The future of the Montrose VA site

From The Veterans Blog at the Journal News:

If you’re at all interested in the future of the Montrose VA hospital grounds, you want to try and get over there tomorrow (Tuesday) evening, when the VA is expected to announce that it will seek proposals for developing the pristine Hudson River property.

Apparently, the VA has decided not to embrace Westchester County’s “Veterans Village” concept without considering other options. The meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. in building 15. The Journal News and lohud.com will be there to cover what happens.

Earlier this month I wrote a story outlining the Veterans Village plan and noting that county officials anticipated that the VA would decide to seek new development proposals.

Local supporters are worried that the VA will sell out to the highest bidder and provide little or nothing for veterans. The VA did not return calls seeking comment at that time. Now is your chance to make sure they hear your thoughts.
