The fight over the proposed repurposing of a building in Stamford”™s High Ridge Park office complex into a fitness facility has been prolonged a second time, as the city”™s Zoning Board extended the public comment period through its April 16 meeting.
At issue is a proposed zoning text change that would allow a Life Time fitness club to take over the former Frontier Communications corporate headquarters. Nearby residents have complained that such a development would increase traffic and noise, while developer George Comfort & Sons maintains those issues have been sufficiently addressed in revised proposals.
If passed, the text change ”“ which requires a supermajority vote of at least 4-1 ”“ would also apply to Stamford”™s five other office parks.
