On Tuesday, May 5, 2026, the Kennedy Heights Community Council (KHCC) and Kennedy Heights Development Corporation (KHDC) hosted a community meeting to share a potential development opportunity for the 1-acre parcel on Montgomery Road that was recently demolished. Representatives from Bethany House Services and Urban Sites presented their initial concept and answered questions from residents.

With demolition now complete on Montgomery Road, the Kennedy Heights Development Corporation is actively receiving proposals for the future of the site. As part of this process, two upcoming meetings have been scheduled to ensure residents have the opportunity to hear directly from a development team and stay informed before any decisions are made.

Growing Access for All: Support Woodford Academy’s Garden Fence Fundraiser

At Kennedy Heights Community Council, we believe every child deserves safe, meaningful opportunities to learn and explore—and that includes access to outdoor spaces like school gardens.

Right now, students in Woodford Academy’s Autism and Deaf/Hard of Hearing (DHH) programs are unable to safely access their garden due to fencing limitations. This space has the potential to be a powerful hands-on learning environment, offering sensory-rich experiences, life skills, and inclusive enrichment for neurodivergent learners—but safety must come first.

That’s why Woodford has launched a Garden Fence Fundraiser Campaign to make this space accessible to all students.
