  Speaker 1: Opening of Oswego senior living facility delayed as contractors fight
• 0:09
  over payment. This article is being read by an automated
• 0:13
  voice brought to you by Everlett. Plans were for the
• 0:18
  brand at Oswego's senior living facility to open its doors
• 0:21
  by the spring of twenty twenty five, but legal issues
• 0:24
  have prevented the project, which is about ninety percent complete,
• 0:28
  from moving forward. The complex, located at one oh one
• 0:32
  Chapman Drive next to Oswego Village Hall, features one forty
• 0:36
  two independent, assisted living and memory care residential units. The
• 0:41
  village has kind of taken on the role as an
• 0:44
  intermediary to bring the feuding parties together. Oswego Village Administrator
• 0:50
  Dandy Santo said several lawsuits have been filed amongst the
• 0:54
  parties who were involved. He said, nothing to do with
• 0:58
  the village, all to do with contract fighting over payments
• 1:01
  and delays in construction. Dusanto said, so now unfortunately the
• 1:06
  project is embroiled in litigation. We're trying to play the
• 1:09
  role of bringing the parties together for a quick resolution
• 1:13
  rather than it going through the courts. The village organized
• 1:17
  a meeting at the end of twenty twenty five with
• 1:19
  a number of the parties that are involved. He said.
• 1:22
  There's some hope, Dusanto said, and our goal is to
• 1:25
  get it open as soon as possible, because they're about
• 1:27
  ninety percent complete with the development. It's a shame that
• 1:31
  it's being left the way it is right now. Frontier
• 1:34
  Senior Living, which manages the brant at Oswego, could not
• 1:37
  be reached for commet. It also manages the reserve at
• 1:40
  Aswego on Douglas Road. At the January sixth Oswego Village
• 1:44
  Board meeting, village trustees unanimously voted to take away the
• 1:49
  liquor license that had been previously approved for the facility.
• 1:52
  The village board had approved the Brandt's liquor license application
• 1:56
  in March twenty twenty four, and the village does not
• 1:59
  typically hold the liquor license opened for more than one year.
