Members of the Escalon City Council approved a Planned Development Project at their Tuesday, Jan. 16 session, giving the nod for the Leer Village project to move forward. As proposed, Leer Village will include re-modeling of some of the existing structures along with construction of additional buildings to create a “mixed-use development.” Among those mixed uses would be eight independent townhouses, one office/retail space, a 10-unit storage building and on-site parking.
