Commission approves modification to Lazy Lane ARCH special permit; one additional unit added
Summary
The commission approved a modification to a previously approved ARCH-zone special permit and an associated site-plan revision at 207 Lazy Lane, increasing the approved unit count from 23 to 24 while maintaining open-space and setback requirements, and confirmed enforcement of 55+ occupancy via condo documents.
The commission approved a modification to an ARCH special permit (SPU 707.1) and a corresponding site-plan amendment (SPR 1891.1) for a 55+ development on Lazy Lane, adding one unit to the previously approved plan (now 24 units total).
Applicant representatives said the change arises from narrower unit footprints that let the developer fit one additional building without reducing open-space percentage; "This unit would be, just like all the others, serviced by public water and public sewer...By doing this, the open space area does not change at all, which is still 29% of the development," said Mark Lovely. Commissioners asked about enforcement of the age restriction; Lovely confirmed enforcement through condominium documents and a resale certificate used at transfer.
The commission had no substantive public opposition to the modification and approved the SPU and site-plan modification in the business meeting by roll call. The applicant was reminded that waivers or fee-in-lieu requests for sidewalks would be part of site-plan details going forward.
