Newtown Inland Wetlands Commission (IWC) voted on a proposed self storage facility during its meeting at Newtown Municipal Center on July 27.
IW Application #21‐16 by 19 Commerce Road, LLC, is for a property located at 19 Commerce Road, to construct a self-storage facility with five buildings and 37,000+ square feet of regulated activity including grading, filling and construction.
At the IWC’s previous meetings, on July 13 and June 22, the applicant’s representative was Engineer Larry Edwards, of J. Edwards & Associates LLC. He presented plans to the commission for the roughly 5.6 acre property.
After much discussion, the commission closed the public hearing at the end of the last meeting.
On July 27, Salling inquired if any members of the commission or town staff had any comments or questions regarding the application.
She noted that since they last met the applicant had submitted additional documents.
Maguire voiced, “We reviewed everything and what we discussed is on the plans, so I have no further questions.”
They then segued into a vote to approve the application, and all were in favor.
