Commission denies developer's request to waive sidewalks on one side of Granite Ridge subdivision

Dec 9, 2025

Developers asked the Weston commission to allow sidewalks and driveway aprons on only one side of the 87‑lot Granite Ridge subdivision and to have the village install the other side later; staff recommended denial and the commission voted to deny the waiver request, citing established practice to require sidewalks on both sides for connectivity.

At its Dec. 8 meeting the Weston Plan Commission denied a developer request to deviate from the code requirement that local streets include sidewalks on both sides. The request concerned the 87‑lot Granite Ridge subdivision (off Old Costa Lane), where the developer proposed to install sidewalks and drive aprons on one side and provide money for the village to build sidewalks elsewhere in the future.
