Please donate to help us preserve the field at the corner of Nooseneck Hill Rd and Harkney Hill Road. Home to “The Tree.”

Background

On October 26th, 2022, Coventry residents were notified of a proposal to develop the beautiful green space that abuts the Wood Estates neighborhood, specifically against the backyards of residents on Wood Cove Drive, and Wisteria Drive. The proposal is called “Coventry Crossings Mixed-Use Development.” The proposal calls for 168 residences consisting of 84 “landominiums” and 84 units across 2 apartment buildings, 25% affordable housing, and an indoor/outdoor soccer complex, all squeezed into 30 acres.

This proposal is overcrowded and lacks consideration of the environment, congestion, surrounding neighbors and more. We don’t want this development to be one of the first things people see when they enter this town. We don’t want this type of overcrowding anywhere in town.

➡️ This project will be devastating to our community and our environment. Adding hundreds of cars, traffic, pollution from the homes and crowds going to the proposed soccer complex adds unnecessary congestion to our town. We feel strongly about preserving the field and the existing tree line. Everyone in this town is familiar with the wildlife and the beautiful tree that make this field so unique.

The Town Council and Planning Commission must halt this proposal and deny any variance to the zoning that will lead to development of this property.

Almost 900 have signed a petition against this or any proposed development.

We as a concerned group of neighbors, know that this development impacts the abutting neighbors and all of Coventry as a whole. Join us and let the town know that we do not want overcrowded, environmentally damaging neighborhoods anywhere in our town.

All donations will assist a growing group of neighbors in raising funds to fight any proposed development. Funds will be used to obtain a lawyer and conduct studies of the area. Join us today!
