Madison Residents Concerned About Newly Created District and Development

Some residents believe that the Madison Beach Hotel will expand again.

Some Madison residents are worried that the Madison Beach Hotel will soon plan another expansion into their neighborhood, and Planning and Zoning commissioners didn’t ease those fears when they adopted a new West Wharf District proposed by the hotel, the New Haven Register reports. 

Previously, the Madison Beach Hotel had to go to the Zoning Board of Appeals for variances on their projects, but now they can just go to the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Register reports. 

Some residents are concerned that this means it will be easier for the hotel to expand, and they presented a 60-signature petition against the new district, reporter Sean Carlin reports.
