Planning Board - 11/9/26

The Tewksbury Planning Board meeting on November 9, 2026, approved the October 19 minutes and appointed the Town Planner as a non-voting alternate member of the NIMCOG Council. The Board also discussed the meeting schedule and noted that there were no active applications listed for the next meeting. No procurement activity, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified.

For 1187 Main Street, the Board unanimously determined that removing a proposed office building and its four parking spaces was a minor modification, then approved the change with the possibility of reviewing or requiring additional landscaping later. The applicant said the revision removes about 2,170 square feet of impervious surface and leaves the area as maintained green space; drainage for the 24-unit building remains unchanged. The Board also considered a family-suite special permit at 21 Virginia Road and an approval-not-required plan modifying parcel boundaries at 16/1620 Shawsheen Street. With no hearings scheduled for the upcoming meeting, the Board voted to cancel it.
