Staff Report Prepared by Meredith Badalucca on 11/17/25
C.G.S 4 8-24 Referral: For the sale of 20 Bridge Street (082-080-000).
Staff received a request for a C.G.S. §8-24 review and report to the Town Council for the sale of
20 Bridge Street from Mayor Bunnell on September 26, 2025. The Mayor stated in his request
"The town may be interested in putting up for sale, town owned property at 20 Bridge St. Please
initiate the required 8-24 review at your earliest convenience. This is in conjunction with the
property at 8, 14 and 22 Bridge St.".
Background:
• Per the Field Card, the Town of Montville (Public Works Row) obtained ownership of
this parcel on March 12, 1932.
• August 8, 1996, Assistant Planner Thomas Sanders received a call regarding water
draining into 14 Bridge Street from 20 Bridge Street.
• August 8, 1996, Assistant Planner Sanders forwarded a letter (attached) to Mayor
Dougherty regarding the above.
• August 9, 1996 a letter (attached) from Assistant Planner Sanders to Allen Cohen
explaining the matter was referred to the Mayor and Public Works Director. The Mayor
referred the matter to the Town Attorney.
• Memo dated 8/21/96 from Assistant Planner Sanders to the Public Works Subcommittee
(attached) explaining the drainage issue. In this memo, Assistant Planner Sanders gave
the history of the parcel. He indicated: "Town acquired property sometime in the 1930's.
Appears that the reason for acquisition was to access the Palmer House which was used
for a school and library in the past. Neither structure exists today. Original access to the
house was along a driveway between the mill buildings on Lots 79, 78 & 77. Lots 79 &
81 have rights to pass over Lot 80. Lot 81 is improved with a single family dwelling." He
further gave his opinion that this parcel (20 Bridge Street) may no longer be needed by
the town. However, there were some legal questions that were being addressed by the
Town Attorney regarding liability and how to correctly dispose of the property. He
further inquired if the committee would want to dispose of the property that an 8-24
review would need to be brought to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
• August 21, 1996 Public Works Subcommittee meeting minutes (attached) discussed the
drainage issues.
• February 22, 2022 and 8-24 Review was completed for the sale of 8, 14 & 22 Bridge
Street. The PZC voted to send a favorable report to the Town Council. (Staff report
attached)
Staff Comments:
This parcel consists of 0.23 acres and is located within the Light hidustrial Zoning District. The
frontage and width of the parcel is approximately 15 feet. The GIS shows an intermittent stream
to the rear of the parcel. The state wetlands layer indicates the rear of the parcel to be alluvial and
floodplain soils. A portion of the property is located within Flood Zone AE.
Minimum requirements of Section
Lot size: 40,000 square feet
Frontage: 100 feet
Front yard setback: 50 feet
Side yard setback: 30 feet
12 — Light Industrial (LI) District:
Rear yard setback: 50 feet to residential or 30 feet to commercial or industrial
Given the size and layout of the parcel, it does not meet the zoning requirements of the Light
Industrial (LI) District. Therefore, should the Commission decide to recommend a favorable
report to the Town Council, staff would recommend that the parcel be conveyed with 8, 14 and
22 Bridge Street. As part of any site plan approval for future development, the parcels shall be
combined.
Staff further recommends that the Commission consider requesting an easement in favor of the
Town of Montville for any future trail project.
This parcel is located within the Job Investment Area on the Future Land Use Map in the POCD.
This includes infrastructure investment, commercial, light industrial, industrial, mixed use and
municipal uses.
Agency Referrals:
Public Works: Comments dated 11/12/25 "No comment from public works."

other comments."

Comments dated 11/13/25 "The Assessor's Office has no comments at this
time."
Fire Marshal:
Comments dated 11/12/25 "The Fire Marshal's office doesn't object to the

DEAR PATRICK:
TIES MORNING I RECEIVED A CALL FROM MR. ALLEN COHEN ABOUT WATER
DRAINING INTO HIS BUILDING FROM LAND OWNED BY THE TOWN OF MONTVILLE, SEE
ATTACHED MAP. LOT 80 IS TOWN PROPERTY, LOT 79 IS THE REFEREED PROPERTY. IT
APPEARS THAT LOT 80 WAS DEEDED TO THE TOWN TO ACCESS THE OLD PALMER
RESIDENCE WHICH AT ONE TROE WAS A SCHOOL AND LIBRARY, LOT 81 HAS A RIGHT TO
PASS OVER LOT 80 FOR ACCESS TO THE DWELLING.
FILL HAS BEEN PLACED ABOVE THE FOUNDATION OF THE STRUCTURE AND HAS
DETERIORATED THE BRICK WALLS. WHO PLACED THE FILL AND WHEN IT WAS PLACED
ARE QUESTIONS THAT PROBABLY HAVE NO ANSWERS. THE TILING NOW IS TO CORRECT
THE PROBLEM.
THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE PROPERTIES THAT WE HAVE NO NEED FOR AND
AS THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY WE MAY BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.

A PROBLEM HAS ARISEN REGARDING FILL ON THIS TOWN OWNED PARCF.I,. THE
FILL HAS STARTED TO DETERIORATE THE STRUCTURE ON LOT 79, THEY NEED TO
EXCAVATE AND PUT DRAINAGE ALONG STRUCTURE. TOWN ACQUIRED PROPERTY
SOMETIME IN THE 1930'S. APPEARS THAT THE REASONFOR ACQUISITION WAS TO
ACCESS THE PALMER HOUSE WHICH WAS USED FOR A SCHOOL AND LIBRARY IN THE
PAST. NEITHER STRUCTURE EXISTS TODAY. ORIGINAL ACCESS TO THE HOUSE WAS
ALONG A DRIVEWAY BETWEEN THE MILL BUILDINGS ON LOTS 79,78 & 77. LOTS 79 & 81

Town of Montville Tax Assessor's Map 082, Lot 79. The total parcel size is
approximately 1.07 acres, based on Tax Assessor's records. The northern and eastern
sides of the property around the building are paved. A railroad spur was previously
located along the eastern side of the onsite structure. To the south of the building, the
land is generally wooded. A small intermittent stream abuts the site to the south and
flows east to Oxoboxo Brook. The Montville Tax Assessor's records indicate that the
building is approximately 58,200 square feet. The building is divided into four sections

Site History
The existing factory building was constructed sometime in the late 1800s or early 1900s.
Its original use was as a warehouse for bedding products, and then paper waste and
finished products. Iu the late 1950s, All Time Manufacturing purchased the property; the
specific use by All Time Manufacturing is unknown. It was subsequently occupied by
Finley Screw Machine Products, Jayfro Corp. (sporting goods manufacturing), Acme
Wire Products, Displa}anakers (trade exhibits), and Impulse Design (designs and
constructs trade exhibits) since circa 1985,
Nature of Threat to Public Health and Environment
Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) were completed for the site in January 2009.
The investigation has identified the release of contaminates related to historical use and
has characterized the nature and extent of the contamination at this property. 'file site has
several environmental concerns where release areas have been detected at the following
locations; former chemical storage and use areas, air vent discharge areas, boiler room,
above ground storage tanks, and underground storage tank locations. The site also
contained a former pond and a railroad split- where soils are impacted by releases or are
comingled with other release areas. Tire shallow soils have been impacted mostly by
petroleum hydrocarbons. Lead and arsenic contamination was identified at the above
ground storage tank locations and arsenic was identified in soils beneath the boiler room.
A Remedial Action Plan (RAP) has been completed for the site which discusses the
remedial approach and the process to achieve compliance with State of Connecticut
remediation standards. The RAP includes the removal of UST/ASTs, excavation and off -
site disposal of contaminated soil and the potential use of institutional controls
(environmental land use restriction).
