SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KCRA) <\/p>\n
A Sacramento development that was facing financial issues was in U.S. Bankruptcy Court Friday. <\/p>\n
Township 9 in the River District had been touted as a mixed-use development that would serve as a gateway to downtown Sacramento. <\/p>\n
Township 9 Owners, LLC filed the paperwork Friday saying, The Board has reviewed the Companys financial position and concluded that that Company is unable to pay its debts as they arise and that it would be in the best interest of the Company and its subsidiaries to reorganize. <\/p>\n
Josie Miller and Claudine Walls said they love living in Township 9s only apartment building, the Cannery. They moved in thinking the surrounding empty lots would quickly turn into stores, restaurants and more homes. <\/p>\n
\"We don't have any yet, Miller said. They said we were going to have some condominiums, but I don't see any yet. <\/p>\n
\"I thought there was going to be some stores, Walls said. But it's not. But I love it. It's quiet. <\/p>\n
In fact, it may stay quiet a little bit longer now that the companies developing the site have filed for bankruptcy. <\/p>\n
The developers of the empty lots and investors will be forced to re-examine the financing of the deal. <\/p>\n
The developers said it won't have any effect on people living at the Cannery but it could delay construction around the site. <\/p>\n
