The Oswego Village Board is considering a concept plan for a residential and commercial development on the site of the old Osweago Drag Raceway. D.R. Horton, Inc. is proposing to build Parksmith Run, consisting of 210 single-family homes and 76 townhome units on the 107-acre property. The site, which operated from the mid-1950s through the 1970s, was used as a quarter-mile track at the Wally Smith farm and was popular with local historians. The new concept plan also proposes 76 two-story townhomes located towards the southern portion of the property behind proposed commercial development along Route 34. The Oswegon Planning and Zoning Commission recently recommended approval of the concept plan, with the minimum lot width being increased from 65 feet to 70 feet to reduce density.
