Greenwich Planners Approve Contested Affordable Unit on Hamilton Avenue
Planning and Zoning · Meeting of July 7, 2026
Greenwich Planning and Zoning Commission approves contested affordable unit despite window concerns. The panel voted 5-0 to approve a plan converting a two-family house at 129 Hamilton Avenue into three rental units, including an 800-square-foot affordable apartment under state statute 8-30g, after commissioners objected that the unit lacked windows in its kitchen, bathroom and family room. Chair Margarita Albin said the commission must "protect the health and safety of our residents." Separately, resident Michael Lulen told the commission Greenwich Country Club ran diesel equipment for roughly four hours in violation of the town's 8 a.m. noise ordinance, even after admitting to prior violations; the club's renovation application was continued.
The commission also approved a 23 Pemberwick Road two-family conversion 5-0 with new tree-removal and landscaping conditions, and endorsed a historic-designation report on the William B. Tubby Jr. House.
