Meeting highlights.
Hilltop Real Estate (See Planning Board, September 14, 2026) The Board opened a Public Informational Hearing on the proposed 17 lot subdivision and adjourned the hearing so that additional notifications can be sent out some existing Hilltop residents.
Most of the comments focused on concerns related to opening up the existing Hilltop dead end, the only proposed access to the new units. Residents on Ridge Street and Sultana Drive were also concerned about the loss of trees that buffer their property, changes to the abutting wetlands, and potential flooding.
Chairman Fon assured residents that these issues would be looked at as the conceptual plan undergoes further review.
Grishaj Subdivison (Stony Street). This was a Public informational Hearing prior to the applicant getting final subdivision approval; the application received preliminary approval for a 10 unit subdivision in 2024.
Although the parcel has frontage on Stony Street, after many discussions, the preliminary plan called for access from two existing dead end streets: Highpoint Drive and S. Shelley Street. Access to Stony Street was rejected because of a grade issue.
At the hearing, residents who live off Judy Road asked the Board to consider access to Stony Street.
Envirogreen (See Planning Board, September 14, 2026.) In a Public Information Hearing, the applicant was advised to “clear up” some debris at the rear of his property before the Board approved his request to subdivide the parcel. The applicant said he would comply.
