Thirteen years after the HealthBridge nursing home in Wethersfield shut down, a developer is proposing to demolish the vacant building and put up 160 apartments. Calafiore’s 341 Jordan Lane Development LLC will seek a zone change from the Planning and Zoning Commission; if it succeeds, it will later put forward a more detailed site plan application. The zone change hearing is Tuesday at 7 p.m. at town hall. In an analysis, Town Planner David Elder noted the project reuses property that’s already been cleared for dense multi-family development, and that it is near transit routes. But he wrote that the company should provide more details about how it concluded the project would be a net financial gain for Wethersfield. Elder also emphasized that a 5% set aside for affordable housing is short of what Connecticut wants each community to achieve townwide.
