The Planning & Zoning Commission has cleared the way for a 260-unit apartment complex on lower Main Street, approving plans for the site by a 3-2 vote. The proposed complex, named The Residences at Main, is for a mix of one- and two-bedroom market rate apartments and will include amenities like a pool, gym and clubhouse. They are expected to draw high-income younger professionals and empty-nesters looking to remain in the area while downsizing from their single-family homes. The developers have referred to their potential tenants as “renters of choice.” Developers, after meeting with emergency responders, said there would be no increased expenses as a result of the project since police already patrol the area and the volunteer fire companies already owned the equipment needed to respond to the complex. The proposal increases Trumbull’s housing diversity, and its location between the mall and the Merritt Parkway ensured minimal impact, he said.
