Greenwich Country Club addresses parking concerns amid expansion plans

The Greenwich Planning & Zoning Commission addressed critical concerns regarding the expansion of the Greenwich Country Club during their recent meeting on March 25, 2025. A primary focus was the adequacy of parking facilities in light of the club's planned growth.

Commission members expressed apprehension about the current parking situation, noting that recent events had seen parking areas become overcrowded. One member highlighted the need for the club to evaluate whether it could accommodate overflow parking, especially since the existing layout limits options for additional parking once the driveway is filled.

The discussion also touched on the club's plans for expanding its entertaining and event areas. Questions were raised about how these changes would impact membership and whether the current valet service would be sufficient or require expansion to manage increased attendance during major events.

No public comments were made regarding the expansion, indicating a lack of immediate community opposition. However, the commission emphasized the importance of addressing parking concerns before moving forward with the project.

As the Greenwich Country Club prepares to submit further details, the commission's focus on parking adequacy will be crucial in determining the feasibility of the expansion. The outcome of this discussion will have significant implications for both the club and its members, as well as the surrounding community.
