Planning commission accepts several PDD and site-plan modifications for review, schedules public hearings

The Shelton Planning and Zoning Commission on June 11 accepted multiple major-modification and site-plan applications for review and scheduled public hearings.

Applications accepted for review and public hearing include: - Application 2509: PDD 53 (Splash Management Group LLC) at 376 Bridgeport Avenue — major modification to add roughly 9,500 square feet of parking, relocate wash tunnels, add self-service vacuum stations, increase and relocate ADA parking, add an exit-only driveway and realign the entrance, and improve lighting, landscaping and stormwater management. - Application 2510: PDD 93 (Matthew Calandro / Steven Bellas) at 509 to 517 Howe Avenue — major modification to reduce previously approved residential unit counts with no change to current commercial use on the first floor; accepted for review and public hearing. - Application 2511: Paul Bombaro for a site plan at 41-45 Bridgeport Avenue — two-story commercial building with retail on the ground floor and office on the second floor; accepted for review and commissioners recommended a public hearing, with WPCA (water pollution control authority) review pending.

Commissioners voted to accept applications 2509 and 2510 for review and set public hearings (a roll call recorded a 6-0 vote). The commission also accepted application 2511 for review and agreed to schedule a public hearing; staff noted that WPCA had not yet reviewed that file and any approval could be conditioned on WPCA input.
