Burdick Street Apartments mixed-use proposal
Summary
Brolex Properties wants to build a four-story mixed-use building — apartments over commercial space including a Pella Windows showroom — on one of the last undeveloped parcels on Medical Center Drive. The Planning Board likes the concept but says the proposed PUD law and site plan aren't ready: too much parking, a problematic second driveway, and workforce-housing language copied from a past project. The Town Board makes the final call after a revised application comes back.

Impact analysis
The developer calls it an eight-figure project; the site needs roughly 300-400 truckloads of fill removed before construction could even begin.
Residents seeking smaller apartments and new commercial options near the town center, plus the proposed Pella Windows and Acropolis Real Estate tenants.
Neighbors concerned about traffic, parking, and density on a tight 1.52-acre site could be affected if concerns aren't resolved in the revised plan.

A four-story mixed-use building with apartments over commercial space is proposed on one of the last vacant parcels on Medical Center Drive. The board likes the walkable, downtown-style concept but says the tight site raises red flags on setbacks, retaining walls, and parking.
