An updated plan for the town-owned 517 & 529 Gold Star Highway properties, along with adjacent privately-owned parcels, calls for 390 apartments, housed within five, five-story buildings, and amenities that include a clubhouse and pool.
The Town Council at its Committee of the Whole meeting Tuesday evening approved the updated concept plan and a one-year extension to the option agreement, which was set to expire in September.
The Town Council is slated to take a final vote on July 2.
The previous concept plan approved by the council envisioned about 300 apartments within four, four-story buildings.
