Actually Bruce, it's pretty easy to figure out who wingeey is- he writes a fair number of letters to the Bee on this subject and when commentators rub him the wrong way he'll show up post haste to engage.
Mr. Trudell has already jumped through more hoops than he should have been required. Asking him to conduct any more tests is unreasonable and tramples on his rights as a landowner. I hope he either goes 8-30 or even better yet drops the cluster home plan and develop the area around the lake. Six or Seven 3 million dollar homes and then throw some 8-30 closer to the road would look really nice in my opinion.
I still remember when there was vocal opposition to building over 50 condos off Oakview road. The NIMBY's argued that it wasn't safe and that disastrous accidents would happen. It hasn't and those living at the Regency are so happy they are the new NIMBY's saying not to build on Oakview build elsewhere in town. With that said, I applaud Mr. Rubler's plans. He uses green building materials, champions solar panels, and knows how to use Connecticuts Affordable Housing Land use Appeals procedure to get around the NIMBY mob.
