Letter: Please build an over-55 community for Bristolians

Posted

To prospective developers in Bristol, I am wondering if we seniors have to relocate to Florida or other more affordable areas?

We love this town and hate being pushed out.

Before all of the large parcels of land are gobbled up here in our town of Bristol, please consider an affordable over-55 community. 

Seniors who want to downsize have no place to go in their own town.
Please limit occupancy to permanent resident Bristolians, preventing non-Bristolians from moving in.

Everyone wants to retire in our beautiful town.
