BT Holdings LLC proposes to annex approx. 60 acres of land in the Town of Chester to the Village of Chester and rezone that annexed property.
Their proposed plan to-date is to build 358, 2-3 bedroom townhouses and 100, 1-2 bedroom senior apartments in two 3-story buildings.
The site topography would require a building that may exceed the building height requirement. The project requires "zoning relief" which will come in the form of changes to the Village Zoning Code via local laws and/or variances granted by the Zoning Board of Appeals. Zoning relief will be pursued for the parking requirements, increase in the maximum number of senior rental units per building and an increase in the 35-foot height limit.
