Hundreds Of New Homes Planned In Plympton-Wyoming

Efforts are underway to develop three large subdivisions in Plympton-Wyoming.

Applications have been filed to redesignate the parcels of land, totalling 328 acres, from Restricted Agricultural to Lakeshore Residential.

That will allow for construction of about 1,200 single family homes.

Senior Planner Rob Nesbitt says they're hosting a series of public meetings on Monday, September 25.

"Each of the properties have been posted with a notice of what's being planned, and surrounding land owners would have also received a notice in the mail indicating of the public hearing," says Nesbitt. "They're invited to come out and voice their support, or concerns, or whatever their opinion might be."

The lands are located on the south side of Egremont Rd. between Wellington Beach #1 and Craigmore Lea, on the southside of Queen St. near Santa Monica Blvd., and on the southside of Hillsboro Rd. near Townsend Line.

The applications will be discussed separately , at 4pm, 4:30pm, and 5pm respectively, at the Wyoming Fire Hall.
