Zoning District 11 — South Darrow Road Corridor
Hudson
Description
Council reviewed the traffic study and debated major changes to the proposed District 11 zoning, including dropping residential uses, capping retail at 10,000 square feet, and excluding grocery stores.
Impact summary
The zone shapes what can be built on the former Joann property; tightening the rules could mean less traffic and no big-box retail or housing there.
