In wake of voters' defeat of the Drowne Road project, it's going to be tough to make a "meaningful dent in the affordable housing crisis," the town council chair says.
An affluent town will decide next month on the fate of a 107-unit development that supporters say is sorely needed. Detractors say it will have an outsized impact on taxes.
Residents have concerns about the taxpayer impact of the council's overall plan for three housing projects and the resulting influx of new residents when schools are already overcrowded.
