In a recent government meeting, the village board approved a redevelopment agreement with HD 71 LLC, paving the way for a new Dunkin' location at 4490 Route 71 and 262 Washington Street. The motion received unanimous support from the trustees, who expressed enthusiasm for the addition to the community.
The meeting also featured a proposal for a significant mixed-use development at the intersection of Wolf and Route 30. The project, which encompasses 160 acres, includes plans for 125 single-family homes, 243 townhomes, 288 apartments, and over 32 acres of commercial space. The village's Plan Commission had previously reviewed the proposal and recommended its approval, contingent upon the developer considering a reduction in overall density due to concerns regarding utilities, stormwater management, and traffic implications.
Carrie Hanson, director of planning and government services for Shopee Design Associates, presented the project on behalf of Oswego Grand Development, LLC. The development team aims to address the community's needs while ensuring sustainable growth in the area. The board's discussions highlighted the importance of balancing development with infrastructure considerations as the village continues to expand.
