The developer, Kevin Sweeney, just submitted the proposal to the city. "We just got the plan," Hubbard says. He says that the project does not have an affordable housing component and the units will be market rate, from about $200,000 to $250,000, on 40,000-sf lots. Sweeney has already acquired the 150-acre parcel, which is described as "wooded" by Hubbard.

The site is currently zoned as rural residential--as opposed to the other residential designations here, such as single family or general--but Hubbard says that the developer will not have to apply to have the area re-zoned. The proposal has to be approved by the city's planning board, which is scheduled to meet in the near future.
