Three years ago city planners approved a new land use policy allowing construction of an office park at Remington Woods, 419 acres of forested property with a large lake. That plan, outlined on a just-launched website, lakesuccess.net, would set aside 358 acres for “conservation space” and use the remaining 61 acres for “renewable energy” projects. It also proposes construction of a “natural science center (to) offer visitors an educational and immersive experience with the region’s wildlife and forest ecosystem.” The company’s estimated completion date for the cleanup is early 2026. The state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, which would likely be involved should Connecticut buy Remington Woods, did not respond to a request for comment. Gresko would like to see the DEEP involved in some capacity but wants to be sure that agency can handle taking on the responsibly of more parkland and is not “overextended.”
