On February 6, 2024, the Stamford Zoning Board convened via Zoom to discuss several applications. The meeting covered a coastal site plan review, a special permit for a deeply affordable housing project, and a special permit modification request. Key decisions included approval of a coastal application and continuation of the affordable housing project, while the board did not vote on the fee-in-lieu request due to applicant withdrawal.
David, I think we can get started. Okay, thank you. I'd like to welcome everyone and call tonight's zoning board meeting to order. It is 6 30 on February 5th, 2024. I'm David Stein, Chair of the Zoning Board, and the members of the board and staff are holding this meeting by Zoom video conference. The public is in attendance both by video conference and teleconference. First, I'd like to do a call of the role of the board and staff. Here. Jerry Bozak. Present. And myself, that's three members, and so we have a quorum. And for the staff, Ralph Blessing. Present. Here. So during tonight's meeting, the board's microphones will be on throughout. We will turn on the applicants' microphones during the public hearing for their application. However, I would ask the applicants to please mute their mics when not speaking in order to reduce background noise. Each member of the public will be muted until it is your turn to speak. Here's the procedure for the public to let us know that you want to speak. If you came in through Zoom, please use the raise your hand function and you will be unmuted when it's your turn to speak. If you called in on one of the Zoom uh telephone conference call phone numbers, please press star nine and this will raise your hand and then press star six to unmute when it is your turn to speak. When members of the public speak, please give us your name and address for the record and whether you are in favor or opposed to the application. The board requests that members of the public limit your comments to three minutes so that everyone will have a chance to speak.
