"' <br /> The result today is that the new approved development/redevelopment projects <br /> (about 44) on Evergreen Way have moved ahead. 75A; of those projects have the <br /> frontage improvement complete. The remaining 25% are on proiects that have <br /> not yet started or are in some stage of being complete. For example, Casino <br /> Road LID is currently under construction and involves those properties at the <br /> intersection of Casino Road. The South Point LID is in the earliest of initial <br /> stages of formation. <br />
