Lowell Planning Board - June 15, 2026

The Lowell Planning Board held a meeting on June 15, 2026, where they addressed several development and subdivision proposals. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a definitive subdivision plan for splitting an existing lot at 202 Baka A into two lots for single-family homes, which received a 4-1 vote in favor. Additionally, the board reviewed and approved a site plan and special permit for the redevelopment of 71 Willy Street, converting a historic mill building into 30 residential units with associated parking and landscaping improvements. The project included a transportation demand management plan approved by the city’s transportation engineer, with conditions related to snow removal, bike rack installation, landscaping, and compliance with engineering comments. The board also approved the minutes from the previous meeting and continued a site plan application to a future date. No contract awards or vendor selections were discussed, but the meeting focused on zoning approvals and site plan conditions that will guide future construction and development activities.
