Duncaster, CEO Papa see expansion plans halted by court appeal as senior-living facility marks 40th year
Published on
For Bloomfield-based retirement community Duncaster and its CEO Kelly Smith Papa, 2024 has been a year of both celebration and frustration. The celebration marked the 40th anniversary of the community, located on Loeffler Road, that is home to more than 300 residents.
The frustration arose after a proposed expansion of its campus was approved in late June by a 4-3 vote of the Town Plan and Zoning Commission, only to be abruptly halted 27 days later after eight neighboring homeowners filed an appeal in Hartford Superior Court.
