TOSW Housing Authority Zoning Amendment
Public Hearing 4-12-16
Planning Department Report
1. Request for amendment to Section 7.7.6.B, Elderly Housing, to increase the cap on the
number of units townwide from 350 to 500 units.
2. In the 2003, this commission approved a text amendment to this regulation that
allowed the maximum number of units allowed in a development to 200 units; and
increased the cap on all units to 350 total units.
3. There are a total of 4aL6 senior housing units currently existing under this zoning
category. I am provided the PZC with a chart that breaks down ALL types of senior
housing we currently have in town.
4. Wapping Mews and Flax Hill, the two South Windsor Housing Authority
developments, have a total of 70 units; Watson Farm has 72 units; Berry Patch has a
total of 196 units. The amendment request to cap the total number of units at 500
acknowledges the 88 Hillcrest units, whereas the previous cap of 350 units did not.
Thus, adoption of this amendment would allow for 64 new units to be constructed, not
150 as appears at first look. '14
5. The Town Plan of Conservation and Development includes senior housing and range
of housing alternatives in Residential Development section:
• Citing a specific goal to encourage additional affordable elderly housing.
If this amendment is approved, the Commission will need to make a finding of
consistency with the Town Plan on the record.
6. The legislative act.of considering zoning amendments includes an obligation to
consider the infrastructure impacts of the amendments for the Town. As noted
previously, if this amendment is passed, it could result in the addition of 64 senior
units. There are no impacts to the most costly budget item, the school system.
Addition of senior housing impacts the provision.of Town senior services such as
transportation and utilization of the Senior Center.
7. Traffic impacts for this type of senior development are small, as this development
category has been providing housing for the older seniors, as compared to the SRD's
that seem to be attracting many of the younger seniors.
8. The Capitol Region Council of Governments has reviewed this amendment and has
responded with the following comments:
---CRCOG review---
9. There have been no other staff concerns expressed.
