New Gulfport subdivision on old William Carey campus land approved despite heavy pushback
SUMMARY: The Gulfport Planning Commission approved a new 62-lot subdivision on the former William Carey University campus, despite strong opposition from nearby residents. Concerns included the need for multiple entry points, the density of 62 lots, and potential traffic issues. Residents argued that the existing infrastructure couldn’t support the development. However, the developers provided proof of code compliance, addressing the concerns sufficiently for the Commission to approve the plan. The decision brings the new Beachside Community one step closer to reality, though future development discussions may still raise further concerns. The meeting was covered by Will Poston from WX News.
20 acres off of Service Drive, the land that was formerly William Carey University has been approved to house a 62 home subdivision.
