Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The Board found concerns about traffic, building height, and the broad range of uses allowed by the proposed Highway Corridor zoning for 249 Andover Street, so it sent an unfavorable recommendation to Town Meeting. It also opposed the original proposal to allow commercial kennel boarding and training by special permit in residential districts, while directing the matter back to the Planning Board. Review of the Maple Street project remains open, with the next hearing scheduled for May 12, 2026.
