A new overlay district option is being proposed as part of an application before the Planning and Zoning Commission tied to the former Stony Hill Inn property on Route 6. The applicant, Upstream Properties LLC, is looking to build residential and commercial buildings on the parcel of vacant Stony Hill Road land between the Copper Square townhouse development and Mountain Laurel Plaza. As part of its application, the developer is seeking a zoning regulation text amendment that would create a Stony Hill Mixed Use Overlay District option for the Route 6 business zone, intended to increase permissible residential unit density. There is an ongoing Planning and Zoning public hearing on Upstream Properties’ application, which is scheduled to continue during the commission’s next meeting on Oct. 26.
