Development giant Winstanley Enterprises is pledging to donate 22 undeveloped acres to Enfield as a conservation buffer to its planned 819,000-square-foot distribution center on the former Hallmark property.
Plans for development of 35 Bacon Road received approval from the town’s Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency last week among stiff opposition from residents living around two lakes near the edges of the property.
Enfield's Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency on Tuesday unanimously approved a wetlands permit for Winstanley Enterprises, which wants to build a one-story, 819,000-square-foot distribution center on 35 Bacon Road, to the disappointment of some residents who believe the project will have an adverse effect on wetlands and endangered species.
The next step for Winstanley is to go before the Planning and Zoning Commission later this month for a site plan review.
