# Urban Affairs Committee Meeting - October 15, 2026


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

The Marlborough Urban Affairs Committee continued its October 15, 2026 review of Boston Bruins LLC’s application for a special permit to operate a drive-through-only Seven Brew coffee shop at 2 Mount Royal Avenue. Members reviewed revisions to the proposed permit, including requirements for a traffic management plan to be reviewed during site plan review, signage and trash controls, and police details for promotional events that may generate off-site traffic. The police chief may determine in writing that a detail is unnecessary; traffic-plan updates may also be considered after the first 60 days of operation. Members discussed directing customers to the correct driveway and providing clear circulation signage to reduce impacts on neighboring businesses.

The committee voted 5–0 to recommend the revised special permit positively, subject to correcting the document’s numbering and removing a stray word before referral to the City Solicitor and full City Council. The transcript indicates a full-council vote was anticipated for November 2, followed by the applicable appeal and recording process, then final site plan review and a building permit. No government procurement, contract award, or spending decision was identified.
