Developers of a proposed resort in Galena made the case for their project at a public meeting Wednesday night that drew about 125 people to Galena Middle School. The presentation addressed the Parker resort, which development groups True North Quality Homes and Bien Vie aim to build on nearly 100 acres that include Galena Marine Hospital. Developers want to construct more than 100 cottages and amenities such as a restaurant, vineyard, event center and more at the site. Since the project was announced in 2022, a large group of citizens has opposed it. After the 90-minute presentation, attendees’ submitted written questions. Developers answered questions on topics ranging from the project’s potential impacts on local lodging providers and city utilities to concerns about noise and traffic. The timeline for beginning construction is currently unknown, as the project is currently tied up in court.
