Planning Board moves shared‑parking zoning amendment forward, will continue hearing to March 10
Summary
Board removed special‑permit path from shared‑parking amendment and agreed to approve parameters through site‑plan approval; public hearing continued to March 10.
The Planning Board reviewed a proposed zoning amendment to enable shared parking on Feb. 24 and agreed with staff recommendations to remove a special‑permit requirement and establish parameters for shared parking eligibility to be handled via site‑plan approval.
Planning staff said the draft amendment removes a separate special‑permit path and instead specifies objective criteria that applicants must meet for shared parking arrangements; the proposal leaves the final approval to the Planning Board during site‑plan review so abutters and the public have an opportunity to review shared‑parking agreements.
Board members expressed no substantive objections and the hearing was continued to 6:30 p.m. on March 10 to allow staff to finalize the legal notice and supporting documents.
