    Carol asked about 2 years ago

    Hello Carol, 

    The rear building is comprised of 36 units served by 22 garages and 23 storage units on the ground level. The southern building includes 18 unit. All residential units have dedicated parking spaces and meet the minimum standards in the land use code. Note that these may be used as vacation rentals and if that becomes the case, there may not be full-time residents. The municipal code requires 1 space for a 1-bed unit and 2 spaces for 2 bed and larger units. The land use code requires 1.75 or 2.25 parking spaces depending on if it's a 1-bed or larger unit. The Town's code does not require garages for residences, only on-site parking.

    dian.ec asked over 2 years ago

    Hello dian.ec, 

    The development is required to dispose of their waste in approved, enclosed, onsite containers until delivered to the landfill. The county is responsible for managing the landfill, and we are not aware of their long-term management plans at this time.

    tmstrang asked over 2 years ago

    Hello tmstrang, 

    This proposed development is located in Mixed Use - Town Center, which is a zone that allows STRs as an "allowable use by right." There are no regulations preventing investors from purchasing these condos and operating as an STR. At the moment, there are not any units being proposed for workforce housing.
