Mechanical brush cutting along the railroad right-of-way received approval, while the commission did not approve the proposed use of herbicide for vegetation management. The stormwater and water-main project can proceed under an Order of Conditions, which sets environmental requirements for the work. The Blackstone Street proposal remains under review, and the subdivision received more time to begin construction.
