The board found that formal subdivision approval was not required for either proposal. At the Second Street and Monteleone Place properties, the owner can move forward with creating three separately owned parcels under a special permit, subject to standard rules and a two-year deadline to exercise the permit. The meeting materials also included proposed zoning standards for battery energy storage systems, including screening, noise, siting, maintenance, and decommissioning funding requirements; final adoption was not stated in the provided excerpts.
