Planning board signs definitive plan for Massey Street subdivision

The Woburn City Planning Board agreed Feb. 11 that the paperwork for the Massey Street definitive subdivision is complete and will be signed for recording after the meeting.

The board's planning director, John (Planning Director), told members, "We do have the definitive plan for the board's signature, and that's ready to sign," and said the declaration of covenant and an amended decision had been signed by Attorney Salvati. The director added the packet also included the mayor's signature and the city council's prior action on the matter.

The matter did not require a formal vote because the board had already voted on the decision at an earlier meeting, the director said; members agreed the plan would be signed and recorded after adjournment. Architect Michael O'Maney of Cummings Properties, representing the project owner, said the application had returned to the board with documents intended to address previously requested protections for a portion of Marcy Street and the donation of Lot 2.

Board members expressed brief thanks to staff and the applicant for completing the submission; no questions or further debate were recorded. The signature will allow city staff to record the definitive subdivision plan at the registry of deeds as the next administrative step.

The Planning Board did not take a roll-call vote on the plan at the Feb. 11 meeting because the substantive vote had already occurred; the director and the applicant confirmed signatures were in hand and the board members present agreed to sign after adjournment.
