WATERTOWN â A newly proposed text amendment to the townâs zoning regulations, if approved, would create a Planned Development District for the old Sealy property in Oakville.
The Planning and Zoning Commission, meeting Wednesday, April 7, set a Public Hearing on the proposal for Wednesday, May 5.
The text amendment, filed by attorney Franklin Pilicy, would create a PDD that will provide for general commercial, rental, professional office space and residential uses on the parcel which was recently remediated and offered for sale.Â
The land was the site of a Sealy Mattress factory which was demolished in 2017.
One of the stated goals of the text amendment is to encourage the orderly development of the site and âprovide an opportunity for creative and flexible architectural design.â Another goal is to âprovide a public benefit with improvements and improved access to the adjacent Veterans Memorial.â
WATERTOWN â The Planning and Zoning Commission, meeting Wednesday, March 3, tabled two Public Hearings on the agenda.
The first hearing, for a zoning amendment to allow an age-restricted housing development overlay district, filed by Garden Brook Real Estate LLC, 470 Straits Tpke., was tabled after a deficiency in notification was discovered.
The second hearing, for a site plan/special permit for a three-story home at 542 Davis St., was tabled because the Conservation/Inland Wetlands Agency has not yet ruled on the application.
A new application, for a site plan/special permit for the addition of a drive-through at 764 Straits Tpke., Mutual Security Credit Union, resulted in the scheduling of a Public Hearing for Wednesday, April 7.
