Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The Franklin Street recommendation supports converting the former school into a two-unit residential property, but the Zoning Board of Appeals must make the final decision. The subdivision proposal remains under review while the applicant addresses outstanding items, including fire-vehicle turning movements, fencing, and consultant comments. The board also discussed clean-energy permitting rules and a possible housing repair fund, but took no final action on those matters.
