The developer submitted a new plan for 21 units. This application will run concurrently with the original one for 28 units. The Board is expected to vote yes to the 28 units and yes to the 21 (an Exception is required). An exception is required because if the developer came in with an application under normal zoning, he would be forced to build mixed-use. This is not economically feasible. The 3rd District already has it's share of un-rented commercial. David Sulkis expects the 21 units to go to a Public Hearing. There is still a misconception that the resident's are against Affordable Housing. We will reiterate, we are NOT against Affordable Housing- we are against State Statute 8-30g which is nothing more than a mechanism by which greedy developers can build whatever they like as long as they hide behind the Statute. Density is not considered under 8-30g, local Zoning Regulations are disregarded. In addition, the income guidelines that are mandated by this Statute are absolutely ridiculous they out- price low to even middle income families. We will update this web site to include all Zoning meetings and hearings- check the Calendar and/or sign up for our mailing list.
