nstruction on a 14-acre residential and commercial property along La. 3235 in Golden Meadow is expected to start in late summer.

When it’s completed, Dore Pre’ will be a $10 million investment, said Janet Rhodus, Omni Realty Advisors broker who’s handling the property for developers Larry and Karen Thigpen from Monroe.

“The community will cater to the needs of Port Fourchon, hospitals and other area businesses in need of housing their staff, contractors and guests,” she said.

The property faces La. 3235, backs up to La. 1 and is next to the Golden Meadow post office.

Just did a Google search. I forgot about this and I can say I don't know anyone in Golden Meadow who's happy about it.

Can anyone articulate to you why they are in opposition? Or are they unhappy just for the sake of being unhappy? It's not like they are tearing down a 100yr old church to build the thing. It's a big arse empty space.

Sounds like progress!

Hopefully it lures more restaurants to the area. . . I'm getting tired of only having a choice between McD's and Huddle House on the trip back from fishing!

So the people of Golden Meadow(and Leeville) hate things like increased housing, higher property values, more tax dollars, increase revenue for local businesses, and the prospect of more businesses being brought to the community?

Not a direct question to you but just curiousity in general. They're pissed because she's a non-local and that she might make some money while probably helping them to increase business/revenue as well?
