Planning Board

The Tewksbury Planning Board held a meeting on September 15, 2026, focusing primarily on the site plan review and special permit for a proposed 16,000 square foot building at 600 Woburn Street. The board discussed stormwater management, tree preservation, fencing, landscaping, and tenant approval conditions. Several waivers related to fence height, parking aisle length, and signage plans were granted. The board approved the site plan and special permit with conditions including landscaping maintenance, video surveillance enforcement, and environmental compliance. Additionally, the board held a public hearing on proposed MBTA zoning articles for the upcoming town meeting, which were unanimously recommended for adoption to ensure compliance with state law and enable future development while addressing resident concerns about infrastructure and traffic. The meeting also addressed ongoing construction issues at 30 E Street and 913 East Street, emphasizing the need for compliance with approved landscaping and fencing plans. No new agenda items were introduced, and the next meeting was tentatively scheduled for September 28, 2026, pending new submissions.
