3 West Haven housing development projects get green light from planners

The developer for a proposed residential community of eight duplex buildings on Shingle Hill Road, which will be developed as part of a federal program for adults age 55 and older, received a special permit approval from the commission in a 4-1 vote. Commission Vice Chairman John Biancur voted against the development, citing several regulations for which he believed the development was out of compliance, including water pressure regulations. When the development first appeared before regulatory boards last summer, neighbors in properties directly abutting the development expressed strong disapproval of the proposal. Neighbor Marty Northam called the proposal a “disaster” that added too much density to the 3.1-acre parcel. The development was held up for more than a year by an appeal after the ZBA meeting. The developer settled with a couple that one of the eight planned duplexes would not be built until the couple vacated their home.
