Developer previews 153-unit senior living plan at Bayside pre-petition conference
Summary
Matter Development presented a conceptual plan for a 153-unit senior living community at OneNorth; committee feedback focused on lighting, setback and material durability but no formal vote was taken.
Matter Development representatives presented conceptual plans for a 153‑unit senior living community on Lot 2 at OneNorth during a Nov. 18 pre‑petition conference with the Village of Bayside Architectural Review Committee.
Aaron Matter, founder of Matter Development, and project architect Nick Galbraith provided an overview of the proposed development and design. Committee members asked about exterior lighting—Matter said the team would follow code and match lighting similar to The Symphony—and requested the setback from Brown Deer Road; Galbraith said it would be approximately 40 to 50 feet. Committee Member Christine Duback and others raised concerns about the long‑term appearance of proposed wood materials; Galbraith said the coating is designed to preserve color and resist fading.
Committee feedback on Nov. 18 was advisory only; Village Manager Andy Pederson characterized the session as an early opportunity for the developer to gather input prior to a formal submittal. Several committee members, including Acting Chair Dan Zitzer and Trustee Ben Minkin, described the project as thoughtfully designed with good connections to existing structures in the Village.
No approvals or binding commitments were recorded at this meeting; Matter Development indicated they would use the feedback to refine a formal application.
