Town staff says Ardmore subdivision will be single-family homes; public asks about Scarborough property

During the public-comment period, a commenter who identified himself as Dylan Schmidt asked about the status of the Scarborough property. Town staff responded with details about the planned Ardmore Subdivision, saying the project will be primarily single-family homes and include multiuse trails and a commercial outparcel.

Staff described the subdivision as roughly 104–106 homes, with interior lots accessed via alleys (avoiding front-facing garages) and a central park. The south portion will include a multiuse trail connection and a commercial outparcel at a roundabout; staff said some prior proposals that included townhomes were removed from the plan and that minimum home size will be 1,500 square feet. Staff also explained multiuse-trail planning for downtown and said the town will pursue federal Transportation Improvement Program funding for a larger multiuse project estimated at over $10 million.

The exchange reflected planning-stage details rather than final approvals; staff said site-plan approvals and the planning commission process will resolve remaining design and connectivity questions.
