The Massachusetts Land Court has upheld a special permit issued by lawmakers in Lenox, Massachusetts to build a $50 million resort in Old Stockbridge.
Neighbors of the historic Elm Court property in Lenox had filed a lawsuit against a proposed 112-room, $50 million Travaasa Experiential Resort.
On Tuesday, the state Land Court ruled in favor of the Lenox Zoning Board of Appeals’ approval of a special permit to build the resort.
Neighbors are concerned about noise levels and traffic near the resort.
The resort’s developer plans to spend roughly $2.3 million on sewer upgrades, and invest more than $3 million into the surrounding area to address those concerns.
