Intersection work helped sway PZC support for $100M Southington project

A developer’s offer to expand and improve a key intersection helped convince town officials to approve a $100 million project off West Street. Town leaders gave the Texas-based developer approval earlier this week for the plan which includes 255 apartments along with turning lanes and a motion-sensing camera for the West Street and Curtiss Street intersection. Despite reservations among some Planning and Zoning Commission members, they approved the development’s special permit and site plan Tuesday night unanimously. Approval includes stipulations for the right-hand turn lane on Curtiss Street and a requirement that trucks use West Street for highway access during construction. The next steps for the company are getting state Department of Transportation approval for work adding the turning lane to West Street. Curtiss Street work only requires town approval.
