$25 million Alternative Elder Care Facility Announced

Boyke and Stirpe at press conferenceOn 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.

A message from the Chair

February 6, 2010—We are a little over a month into the new year and our committee is off to a great start. We set up some subcommittees that are dedicated to meeting regularly to make sure important tasks like recruitment, the website and fund-raising are priorities. We have our candidate selection committee members readying themselves to interview any prospective candidates for some of the upcoming local and county races. I have attended most of these meetings and there is a real excitement and momentum to grow our committee. Also, we have some great new ideas on how to fill our coffers for the next round of Town races in 2011.
