After nearly two years of study, the Sweden Town Board is ready to vote on the Heritage Square re-zoning application. The vote will likely take place at the regular Town Board meeting on October 10. That evening, the Board plans to adopt a Findings Statement relative to the project. The Board has also developed a list of conditions that would be attached to the potential re-zoning.

The Heritage Square application calls for the re-zoning of 130 acres of residential land on the west side of Redman Road, just north of the Sweden Town Park, to allow for a mix of residential types and small-scale businesses. McLean Development has proposed a mostly senior living community including an assisted living facility, single-family homes, town houses and patio homes with small retail businesses and possibly a hotel.

If the Town Board approves the re-zoning application, the developer would then have to apply for Site Plan and Subdivision Approval with the Sweden Planning Board.
