RESIDENTS, STAFF, AND COMMUNITY LEADERS COME TOGETHER AT Good SHEPHERD VILLAGE FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF IT'S NEW RENOVATION PROJECT.

THE 15 MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT IS FUNDED BY THE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, AND AIMS TO EXPAND KEY PARTS OF THE VILLAGE LIKE THE HEALTH CARE CENTER, THE FITNESS FACILITIES, AND THE PUB.

The ADA AND THE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT CORP. HAVE PROVIDED AROUND 160 MILLION DOLLARS IN FUNDING SINCE ITS OPENING 13 YEARS AGO.

"I WON'T GO THROUGH EVERYTHING, BUT CERTAINLY IT'S NOT TO FIX THINGS, IT'S TO BETTER THINGS AND TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DO MEET THE NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS OF THE NEXT GENERATIONS OF SENIORS", says Michael Keenan, CEO of Good Shepherd Village.

CONSTRUCTION WILL BE OVERSEEN BY WILLIAM H. LANE CONSTRUCTION AND SFCS, AN ARCHITECT COMMITTED TO SENIOR LIVING FACILITIES.

THEY'VE INCLUDED SOME RENDERINGS SHOWING PLANS FOR NEW BALCONIES, ADDED ROOM FOR THE MAIN LOBBY, AND EXPANSIONS ON EXISTING ROOMS.

GROUNDBREAKING IS EXPECTED TO START IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR, WITH PLANS TO BE DONE IN 2024.
