The Auburn Planning Board will meet Tuesday to review significant development projects, including a proposed housing complex at 197 State Street and a minor subdivision application for a vacant lot on Dunning Avenue. The meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m. in Council Chambers at Memorial City Hall.
The board will conduct a public hearing on a special use permit and site plan review for the redevelopment of 197 State Street. Housing Visions Consultants, Inc. plans to demolish the current structure to construct a four-story, 26,492-square-foot building. The new facility will feature 26 one-bedroom apartments, parking for 20 vehicles, and improved landscaping and lighting​.
A second hearing will address the subdivision of a lot at 142 Dunning Avenue. The proposal involves creating a 28,571-square-foot residential lot at the corner of Leavenworth Avenue and St. Anthony Street. The application, submitted by Contiguglia Law Offices, aims to prepare the site for future development​.
Both projects have attracted attention for their potential impact on the community, particularly regarding parking, stormwater management, and infrastructure upgrades. Public comments will be accepted during the hearings.
