Killingly Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission Regular Meeting
The commission held a discussion regarding a motion to deny an application for a warehouse and distribution center project due to concerns over wetland impacts, failure to exhaust feasible and prudent alternatives, and potential adverse environmental consequences. The commission proposed specific alternatives for the applicant to investigate, including reducing the building footprint and implementing structured parking. Additionally, the commission addressed concerns from citizens regarding the water levels of the Old Killingly Pond and the associated management of the low-level outlet pipe, noting that this topic would be revisited in future proceedings.
