Milford IWA declines to require sidewalk at Wheelers Farms redevelopment, schedules application presentation
Summary
The Agency reviewed a pre‑application for IW250054 (470–488 Wheelers Farms Rd) and agreed that a site walk or immediate sidewalk requirement was not necessary; the applicant (Continental Properties) will present engineering materials at the next meeting.
The Milford Inlands Wetlands Agency reviewed the pre‑application for IW250054 (470–488 Wheelers Farms Road) on Nov. 5 and agreed not to require a site walk or to impose a sidewalk requirement at this time. Staff said the full engineering review from the city engineer is pending and expected before the Nov. 19 meeting; Continental Properties will present the full application when the materials are complete.
Why it matters: The site lies in the Weppawak River watershed and includes pond and wetland features. Commissioners noted the proposed redevelopment would involve grading and wetland adjacency work; they agreed the city engineer’s forthcoming review and the applicant’s presentation at the Nov. 19 meeting will provide sufficient information to decide whether an on‑site inspection is needed.
Next steps: The agency will receive the city engineer’s comments and the applicant presentation at the next meeting and then decide whether a site walk is necessary.
