By: Katie Kustura | The Daytona Beach News Journal – DELAND — The City Commission, following what may have cumulatively been the longest hearing on a proposed project, voted 3-2 in favor of a rezoning request to allow the building of the Cresswind Planned Development, a 600-home age-restricted community, next to Lake Winnemissett.
Vice Mayor Charles Paiva and Commissioner Chris Cloudman cast the dissenting votes during Wednesday night’s special meeting.
Paiva reiterated that he still felt the project — at just under 2.3 homes per acre — was too dense for the area.
The site of the proposed Kolter Homes development is approximately 318 acres, of which about 52 are submerged.
