New England Brewing Co. Lease Approved By West Haven City Council

WEST HAVEN, CT — The proposed New England Brewing Co. brewery in West Haven took another step closer to becoming a reality following the unanimous approval of a lease agreement by the City Council at a special meeting on Wednesday night.

After meeting in executive session for two hours, the council approved Mayor Nancy Rossi entering into a lease agreement with the developer with several new conditions that weren’t part of the original proposed lease agreement, according to the New Haven Register.

The conditions include replacing a plan to use a pump station’s parking lot to meet the required amount of parking with a plan for the city to provide 30 parking stickers to the brewery for street parking, the New Haven Register reported.

New England Brewing Co. plans to relocate its brewery from Woodbridge to the former Savin Rock Conference Center in West Haven.
