# Urban Affairs Committee Meeting - October 15, 2026


**Body:** Marlborough MA Meetings on WMCT-TV
**Date:** October 14, 2026
**Jurisdiction:** SLED

The Marlborough City Council Urban Affairs Committee met on October 15, 2026, to continue reviewing Boston Bruins LLC’s application for a special permit to construct, own, and operate a drive-through-only coffee shop in an existing building at 2 Mount Royal Avenue. The committee voted 5–0 to recommend approval of the updated permit. The decision incorporates operating hours, landscaping, stormwater and erosion-control requirements, noise and sign provisions, and a traffic management plan to be reviewed through site plan review. It also requires police details during the first two weeks of operation and the first qualifying promotional event, subject to the police chief’s ability to waive a detail by letter.

Committee members discussed traffic circulation, signage, nearby businesses, and keeping vehicle queues within the site. The draft will return to the city solicitor for final formatting and two corrections before the full City Council considers it, expected November 2. No procurement, contract award, or purchasing activity was identified.
