It was never a promise but a business decision based on the direction from Wildwood and the County. They had a developer for what is now Fenney and when that developer went belly up they negotiated for the Morses to acquire the project and the Morses agreed if they could build back to 44. Since that area is Wildwood I suspect they agreed when they realized the revenue they would receive from taxes and fees. A recent comment by the Mayor confirmed that all came to fruition and will be channeled into the Wildwood area hopefully upgrading the town and surrounding areas. Couple that with all the farmers and residents that owned land going south and were willing to sell and not hard to see how the growth is occurring. Now of course we have those that want the growth to stop because "they got theirs" and want nobody else to "get theirs".
