During a recent government meeting, officials discussed the postponement of the MJDP 24-38 SP Gross Subdivision plan, with a motion to delay the recommendation receiving unanimous support. The committee then shifted focus to the major development plan for 24-39 Hamburg Place Farm, located at the intersection of Sir Barton Way and Interior Pavilion Way.
The proposed development includes a two-story restaurant exceeding 13,000 square feet, with significant attention given to pedestrian access and compliance with zoning requirements. However, concerns were raised regarding the multimodal plan, particularly the lack of designated bike paths on the site. The applicant acknowledged these issues but emphasized that the plan remained unchanged from previous iterations, which had already undergone extensive review.
A key point of contention involved reciprocal parking and access agreements with an adjoining property owner. While the applicant indicated that a note on the plat sufficiently addressed these concerns, the neighboring property owner sought a more formal agreement, which the applicant declined. The committee noted that while they generally refrain from intervening in private disputes, the existing documentation should suffice to clarify parking arrangements.
The meeting concluded with a consensus that the note on the plan regarding reciprocal parking was adequate, allowing the committee to move forward without further action on the matter.
