Retail building proposal at 226 Rubber Avenue continued after staff requests more details
Summary
Applicant Stacy Ferrari presented plans for a 9,560 sq ft single‑story retail building at 226 Rubber Avenue; staff requested clarified floor areas, parking justification, dumpster enclosures and landscaping details and continued the application to the next meeting.
A site plan for a proposed 9,560‑square‑foot retail building at 226 Rubber Avenue was presented to the Naugatuck Zoning Commission and continued for more detailed submission.
Ron Wolf, engineer for the applicant, and Kevin Bennett of Bennett Sullivan Architects presented a single‑story building layout labeled for an appliance showroom and up to two additional tenant spaces. Wolf said the project parcel is a borough‑owned 1.426‑acre site; the applicant would purchase the westerly portion and build a 9,560‑square‑foot structure with about 40 parking spaces and two loading spaces. The submission included drainage, a proposed sewer connection and initial landscaping.
Staff reviewers asked for clearer floor‑area figures, a parking justification tied to tenant uses, detailed dumpster enclosure plans and a final bond estimate. The building elevations shown in the presentation included a front sidewalk and planting areas; staff noted the site plan should clearly match pedestrian circulation and accessible routes shown on the elevations.
Wolf indicated environmental cleanup and closing are scheduled in the summer and that construction could begin after permits and approvals. The commission continued the application to the next regular meeting and asked the applicant to return with the requested programmatic and site‑detail revisions.
