General Questions About Lots 1 and 2
Neighborhood Responses
“This seems to be a huge change in the landscape
and nature of Williams Street residences.”
“I am certainly not an expert, but I thought that this what
the "design standards" were there to block”
“this is a really significant development. I am concerned
about the increase to traffic. it will certainly make the
already precarious issue of on street parking more difficult
and hazardous if there are more cars.”
“It would be quite tight of a fit into that double lot and 6
condos is very dense.”
“I can’t believe the city would approve this.”
Quote from Wayne Feiden
Director, Planning Department, City of Northampton
The trick to good open space
planning…is including the community
itself in the planning process, using a
variety of techniques to protect open
space in appropriate places, and
requiring every developer who builds
something new to help the community
protect more open space.
