Developer Lou Sacco and his partners have submitted plans for a 42-unit townhouse development on woodlands just north of Elmer Road.

Plans call for eight buildings to contain the townhouses, most of which will be three stories high.

The plan drew attention earlier this year after the city's new master plan was invalidated after Judge Michael Fisher ruled that then-Mayor Perry Barse's administration had wrongly excluded the public from meetings about the plan. Fisher reviewed the plan after developer Rudy's Airport LLC sued the city after his request for a zoning change was rejected.

The South East Boulevard property owned by Atlantic Realty, in which Sacco is a partner, was one of several locations rezoned as part of the new master plan. City officials subsequently revised the plan again, but this was one of the changes that remained. The zoning change allowed Atlantic Realty to build the clustered housing.
