In Lafayette, a new housing development proposal seeks to build homes on land historically known for white crosses memorializing troops. The development, named Oak Hill Place, aims to create smaller homes between 800 and 2,100 square feet with shared yards for affordability. As the city faces legal pressure to increase housing, this project could be expedited under SB 330. Neighbors have raised concerns regarding density and size, while public hearings continue leading up to a city council vote expected this fall.
The Oak Hill Place project aims to build affordable homes while preserving the iconic memorial of white crosses that have stood for nearly two decades.
While some neighbors express concern over the density and scale of the new homes, the developer is hoping to provide affordable housing options, structured to foster community.
