Planning Board reviews multifamily housing amendments and a new five-lot subdivision plan

The board will hold public hearings regarding two multifamily housing projects. This includes a request for 10 Florence Street to convert a former convenience store into a residential unit within an existing 82-unit, six-story building. Additionally, the board will hear a request for 211-213 Main Street to extend a special permit for a three-story dwelling that includes 20 affordable housing units and ledge removal.

During the public meeting, the board will consider a subdivision application for several parcels including 74 East Border Road, proposing to merge and subdivide the land into five distinct lots. The session will also include a discussion on amending the Master Plan Steering Committee charter and an advisory recommendation for a proposed 7-story multifamily building at 1 Salem Street and 15 Ferry Street, which would include 73 units and 12 affordable housing units.
