Developer Pitches 104 Apartment Complex With Affordable Units In New Milford

A developer is proposing a roughly 10 million dollar project to build 104 apartments along Route 7 in New Milford, with nearly one-third of the units set aside as so called “affordable housing”. Plans call for three four-story buildings with 32 deed-restricted affordable units, triggering state protections that limit the town’s ability to deny the project unless clear health or safety concerns are found. A traffic study estimates about 716 daily trips and a five percent increase in vehicle volume, but engineers say the roadway can handle it. The proposal, known as Evergreen Village, now heads toward a zoning commission public hearing.
