The majority who addressed the council during the public hearing said they agree with TCN’s mission, but had concerns that if land was rezoned and the organization moved into the research park, it could jeopardize the safety of others in the area and cause property values to decline.
Travis Greenwood, president and CEO of the Greentree Group, which owns a building on Technology Court, said his company moved into the research park to be with its “professional peers.”
“Unfortunately, the rezoning request and what would go into that building does not meet the type of peers we would want in our neighborhood,” he said. “That does not say anything bad about people who need treatment. I’m all for that.”
The city council voted to continue the public hearing and resume discussion on the issue during its next meeting on Feb. 22.
