The Voice of Reason 8 Report post Posted October 18, 2011 While it may not be alot, we have more new housing coming downtown Approved with Conditions: a) 909 Main Street-Special Permit amendment to renovate floors two through nine for the addition of nine residential units and to eliminate common tenant recreation space. THIS IS NEW!!! 204, 206, 220 Collins Street & 232, 238 Sigourney Street-Special Permit amendment for renovations and new construction of 87 housing units, office, daycare, and maintenance garage. Applicant & Owner-Sigourney/Ashley/Collins LP. (Tabled from September 27, 2011) My question is... What does that mean? I looked at the loacation and its those townhomes behind The Hartford. They will be rennovated, so thats good, but the new construction of 87 apartments? whats that? This one has its own thread allready. I might eventually dig that thread up and tack this on, but it seems they are looking to increase the parking allotment before building this thing. IIRC there were plans out there too. 815 Wethersfield Avenue-Special Permit amendment for a 24 unit apartment building with parking and recreation space in the rear. Applicant & Owner-Cardinal Realty Investors, LLC. (Tabled from October 11, 2011) e) 815 Wethersfield Avenue-Special Permit amendment for additional parking spaces for a previously approved 24 unit apartment building. Lastly.....

The Voice of Reason 8 Report post Posted February 13, 2012 The new apartments near the Hartford sounds very promising. Defintely want to hear some more about that. ask and you shall receive... it was tabled, and will discussed on the 2-28 meeting. III) Tabled: a. 204, 206, 220 Collins Street and 232, 238 Sigourney Street-Special Permit amendment for the renovation of four buildings with 62 residential units, demolition of one building and new construction of a three story building with 26 residential units, community room, management office, daycare center and maintenance garage. So it seems the new building is not 87 units, but the total project is 88 units. seems like there have been minor tweaks, but at least we now know they are building a 3 story building with 26 units and apparently the infrastructure for the rest of the complex will be run through this new building.

Most similar projects contain 5 to 10% of expenses ineligible for reimbursement, therefore the recommendation is to anticipate a City share equal to 25% of the total project cost, with a net 75% State reimbursement.
