South Windsor’s Planning and Zoning Commission, on Wednesday, unanimously approved a year-long moratorium on acceptance of new applications for warehouses, distribution centers and freight terminals. A day prior, industrial developer and investor Scannell Properties submitted a wetlands application for a 241,800-square-foot warehouse on 18.8 acres. The development site comes from an assemblage of properties including 67 and 68 Kennedy Road and 352 Sullivan Ave.

South Windsor’s Planning and Zoning Commission is poised to adopt a year-long moratorium on new warehouse and distribution centers in response to resident concerns following a development boom of just over a decade. Several commission members voiced support at a Tuesday night meeting for a moratorium proposed by resident Kathy Kerrigan. Members delayed action, however, after an attorney representing an unspecified landowner raised concerns the measure had not been publicly available long enough for its adoption to be legal.
