On January 27, 2010 Supervisor Judy Boyke held a press conference to announce the selection by Loretto to build a new $25 million facility on the old Cicero Commons campus, now New Dimensions, in the Town of Cicero. This facility will be built according to the Green House Project model for elder health care, a radical departure from the institutionalized care typically provided to seniors in traditional nursing homes. Thirteen buildings accommodating 10 to 12 residents in each house will be built on 18 acres. Pioneer Companies, the developer, has just submitted the construction application to the Town of Cicero. Construction will be started in September, 2010, and the project will be completed in the Fall of 2011. The as-yet, unnamed facility will be staffed by 120 employees. Watch the press confernce.
