Planning Board recommends Central Street historic‑preservation zoning amendment to City Council
Summary
After a presentation and prior hearing, the planning board recommended forwarding a zoning amendment to establish a historic preservation project for Central Street to the city council.
The Gardner City Planning Board recommended the City Council adopt a zoning amendment related to a historic preservation project on Central Street after hearing a presentation and previous public hearing.
Board members recalled the prior evening’s presentation and attorney briefing and said they supported forwarding the proposed zoning amendment to the city council. One board member said the proposal “makes sense,” and the board voted in favor of recommending the amendment as presented.
Why it matters: the zoning amendment would establish protections or project parameters for Central Street’s historic resources (the proposal was presented to the board during an earlier hearing). The planning board’s recommendation sends the amendment to the City Council for public hearing and final action.
