The agenda lay before the Planning and Zoning Commission like a familiar landscape, with no hidden curves and no obstacles. In a matter of 30 minutes the Commission dispensed of all business before it with nary a debate or objection.
P&Z approved the petition of John and Netty Rogalsky of 849 Congdon Street to subidivide their lot to build a larger home for their family. John Rogalsky explained that the house on his current lot did not suit the needs of his family, and would be sold to finance the new construction.
The Commission also approved, unanimously, the request for a modification of a subdivision off Atkins Street. Ralph Wilson, the attorney for the developer, explained that the developer would undertake road improvements needed to service the subdivision at no cost to the city. The 800 feet of road improvements were estimated at $337,000. Work on the Atkins Street road would cause of road closure of one to two weeks, and traffic would be detoured a mile around the road work.
The Commission tabled a decision on a Site Plan Approval extension for new office and storage construction at 754 Middle Street when attorney Dennis A. Ceneviva, attorney for the developer failed to appear.
Board chair Quentin Phipps noted that as of the next regularly scheduled meeting, the Commission would take up a request by Mayor Sebastian Giuliano to review plans for improvement of Middletown's Connecticut River waterfront. The first topic of discussion will be improvements, and removal of the waste treatment plant south of downtown, and the second topic will be a review of plans presented as a result of a charrette held to solicit ideas for the waterfront improvement.
