Request/for zoni . amendments to Section�.1.12 c and h of the zoning reg la ' n�traisf f the ca on e total n er` f Seni r-�esidenceuriitsfrom 15 6 2 ; d raise th mum unit i allowed from 1400 square feet to 1800 square feet. 2. There are currently 118 SRD units built or under construction, and 20 units in Shady Brook, for a maximum total of 138 units allocated. If e'Shady Brook appeal is successful, there are 32 additional units possible under the current cap. If the Shady Brook appeal is not successful, there are 12 additional units possible. 3. When the SRD regulation was enacted in November 1992, the number of units to be allowed was capped at 115. That number was subsequently raised to 150 in November 1997 at the request of an SRD developer. 4. The maximum unit size of 1400 square feet was enacted in order to keep the units moderately priced. The original application for approval of the SRD regulations had included a provision that some units of the SRD could be dedicated to the Town's Moderate Price Housing Program, and thus would be deed-restricted to keep them affordable to moderate income seniors. The Commission eliminated this provision from the proposal upon adoption. 5. The Town Plan has two goals that directly address senior housing: • Develop housing to meet the needs of the entire community, including but not limited to the elderly and various income levels; • Develop a full range of housing styles, types, sizes, densities, affordability, and forms of ownership in order to meet the housing needs of the community. 6. In the adoption of a zoning amendment, the Commission is acting in its legislative capacity. This is the time to consider all of the implications of the proposed amendment, such as: • whether the Commission is satisfied with this style and density of housing; • ( h he it is fi nci enef to %ist 'ndsor he o s ion at t e e t o -bee to om the pplica t); w • raising the maximum unit size by 29% will still meet the original intentions of the SRD regulation, or whether conditions have changed such that the new limit would be more appropriate than the old limit; • whether the increase in unit size would change the complexion of the developments such that they are not in compliance with one of the stated purposes of the SRD: "to foster small senior developments which can be nestled into neighborhoods with minimal impact on surrounding properties; and, • whether existing unmet housing needs in South Windsor will be served in the best possible manner. 7. The zone change request was referred to CRCOG as required. CRCOG responded that: ***READ CRCOG REPORT*** 8. If this amendment is approved, the Commission must state on the record that they have found the amendment to be consistent with the plan of development.
