Needham Planning Board, 9/24/24


It may have been a two-item agenda for the Planning Board, but that doesn’t meet there wasn’t a lot to be said. Two high-profile items dominated the evening, with the Needham Housing Authority looking to get site approval for the first stage of their reconception of the Linden Chambers Development. Afterwards, the final tweaks were put on the MBTA Communities Zoning articles that will come in front of Town Meeting this October. Small changes, perhaps, but you know how the old adage goes…
