Impact analysis
Neighbors worry a largely paved office development on a low, flood-prone tract could push water onto adjoining homes and lower property values.
The buyer, Stewarding Company, gets room to grow its contracting business near the interstate and its employees' communities.
Adjacent homeowners say they'd bear flooding, sewage, traffic, and privacy impacts in a residential neighborhood.
