A developer’s proposal to build an apartment building in Glastonbury with nearly two dozen units set aside as affordable housing hit so much public opposition last month that the company wants a delay before the next public hearing.
The Glastonbury Town Plan & Zoning Commission has until June 21, to finalize a developer’s proposal to build a 74-unit apartment building that could be occupied in early 2024 if it gets final approval.
Town Planner Jonathan Mullen said Thursday the commission held a public hearing on the proposal Tuesday. The meeting was continued to June 7, with the town setting a June 21 deadline for the commission to act, Mullen said.
A Manchester-based developer is proposing a 74-unit, mixed-income apartment building in Glastonbury that could be occupied in early 2024 if it gets approval from several town boards.
Developer Richard Hayes Jr., principal of Manchester/Hebron Avenue LLC, is proposing 74 multifamily units for the site at Manchester Road and Hebron Avenue, which is across the street from Buckingham Park and will be known as Buckingham Corners. The building will be five stories tall, according to Hinckley Allen partner Timothy Hollister, who represents Hayes.
