Branford developer proposes 14 duplexes near Route 15 in Woodbridge

A Branford developer has submitted an application to the Town Plan and Zoning Commission proposing to build more than a dozen duplexes near the Wilbur Cross Parkway. Litchfield Turnpike LLC, based in Branford, has proposed a 14-lot subdivision on Merritt Avenue for the purpose of building a residential development called the Enclave at Woodbridge. The proposed residential development would contain 14 duplex buildings with 28 dwelling units, plans show. Construction on two of the buildings is underway, with the developer opting to do a “free-split,” which, under state law, allows a division of a parcel to be exempt from the subdivision review process, Zoning Enforcement Officer Kristine Sullivan said. Woodbridge has been examining ways to increase its affordable housing to abide with a state law that requires a municipality to provide no less than 10 percent of its total housing stock as affordable housing. As of 2021, the percentage affordable housing in Woodbridge was 1.18 percent, according to the town’s recently adopted Affordable Housing Plan.
