What this means

The board approved several property and site-plan actions, including the Long Neck Road subdivision that separates existing homes from conservation land. It also approved conditions for 2 East Boulevard, site plans for 238 and 240 Sandwich Road and 3031 Cranberry Highway, and two lot-line or lot-creation plans. A proposed process for handling minor plan changes administratively was discussed but would require a public hearing before it could take effect.
