Middlesex County officials are exploring development possibilities for the Latimore property along Route 33 between Cooks Corner and Saluda. Purchased in 2006 for a now-abandoned sewage facility, the land includes adjacent frontage acquired in 2022 to improve access. The county sent out a request for proposals to gauge private sector interest in residential or commercial projects. Challenges include extending water and sewer lines, with costs potentially exceeding $1 million. County leaders say they are trying to determine if development is feasible, though they caution that Middlesex lacks the infrastructure driving growth in neighboring areas.
