Residents raise security, height and access concerns about proposed 25-acre development
Summary
During public comment, residents asked whether a proposed laundry facility would be secured for residents only, queried the 37-foot building height limit, and objected to lack of an access point from Lafayette St.; the chair said the laundry would be secured and the height will be corrected in the draft ordinance.
Two residents spoke during the public-comment portion of the Planning Commission meeting with questions about design and access. One resident (Speaker 11) asked about security for a proposed laundry facility; the Commission Chair clarified it would be secured for residents via locks and swipe cards and would not be open to the general public.
A second resident questioned the stated 37-foot building height and objected to the absence of an access point from Lafayette St.; the chair said the height language will be corrected in the draft and noted the access objection in the record. Another public commenter (Speaker 12) criticized the commission's authority over variances and functionality, saying such matters belong to the Zoning Hearing Board and called the commission's discussion 'ambiguous.'
