Quick context to catch up fast.
The Planning Board unanimously approved, with conditions and waivers, the 11,831-square-foot Bourne South Side Fire Station plan at 171 Clay Pond Road. Revised stormwater controls are expected to reduce peak discharge by 33% and the volume discharged during a 100-year storm by two-thirds. The board also advanced proposed accessory dwelling unit and Downtown District setback changes, while holding seasonal-community, tiny-home, and affordable-lot proposals for further study.

Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The fire station project received site-plan approval, subject to conditions and waivers; the minutes do not list those conditions. Stormwater will be directed to a basin at the base of the slope rather than through the previous spillway design. Proposed ADU rules will go to Town Meeting, including a 1,500-square-foot size limit, while some other housing proposals will not be brought forward yet.
