ZC Okays “Residential Life Care Community” for Watrous Property

GROTON–The Zoning Commission voted 3-2 on Aug. 13, 2003, to approve an application by Mystic Active Adult LLC to build what the developer described as a “residential life care community” on 105 acres of the Watrous property off Noank Ledyard Road. The project is subject to court action, however. The Groton Open Space Association has appealed to the Superior Court the Inland Wetlands Agency’s approval of the project. The developer also has appealed, objecting to some wetlands protections imposed on the project by the Wetlands Agency.
