Disclosure: Rose Law Group recently began representing Surprise Center Development Corporation and Mattamy Homes.
Proponents of the proposed Mattamy Homes community in downtown Surprise including detached, single-family homes, and the four members of the City Council that voted the project down June 6 agree on the need to have face-to-face discussions soon.
Mayor Sharon Wolcott was the loudest voice in galvanizing resident turnout to speak against the plan and gave the most thorough rationale for opposing it of the four councilors who voted against it. During the June 20 council meeting she said she reached out to property owner Surprise Center Development Company and hopes for a meeting with SCDC and the council before it takes its July break.
