What to Look for and some updates
Just when you think you can see most of the new (LARGE) construction you need to take a peek over the horizon. There are a few projects, albeit in the future, that are now starting to be talked about or as the developers like to call it a “conceptual plan”
Irene Road Subdivision: There is a 7 acre lot owned by Carroll and Marion Bryan that they are looking to develop. They have employed K&M Land consultants to make a Preliminary Subdivision plan. What they initially are looking to do is build a 6 lot cluster development.
98-100 Concord Road: This is a plot of land owned by Daniel Coyne that backs up to the land of the Middle School. He is looking for guidance as to whether he should build a Planned Residential Development (PDR) or a Subdivision.
Bedford Motel Redevelopment: The Bedford Motel and other businesses in that area are considering making some redesigns. Many of the business owners are still in a wait and see mode. The town has been working on a zoning overlay bylaw for that area. There may be some big changes for that area in the future. I was at Bedford Farms with the family this weekend; I hope these changes don’t affect my ice cream!
Now for some updates: Freedom Estates have had the rest of their lots released. This means is that they can now sell them to individuals or builders. I was down there this past weekend walking around. It looks to me that they are building some nice houses with lots of close neighbors. There is the one main street, Liberty, and two cul-de-sacs, Prescott and Meeting House. The town has also started working on the plot of and behind the development. It looks like there will be two very nice soccer fields ready soon. As an aside, while there I met the first home buyers. They seem very friendly and well informed about Bedford. They also had four children; I wonder how all of these houses are going to affect the school system.
The Bedford Depot work continues (slowly). The sidewalks seem to be about half done and I can only assume that they will start with the traffic lights once those are finished. I’ll have to try to get some pictures of how it looks now so we can compare later. That is all for now.
