After a developer presented a concept plan for 60 homes on a 6.7-acre Route 31 site, the Oswego Planning & Zoning Commission rejected the proposal 5-2, with commissioners and nearby residents saying the proposed 8.95 units per acre and a five-story condominium are incompatible with adjacent single-family riverfront lots.

The commission heard a detailed presentation from Carrie Hansen of Schoppe Design Associates and developer Rohit Hingra of Property Add On, who described a plan that preserves roughly 37% of the site as open space, includes a roughly 325-foot riverfront setback and provides on-site parking that meets the villages UDO.
