Planning board accepts site‑plan revision for 110 West Street; transformer moved toward MBTA tracks
Summary
Board approved a site‑plan revision to relocate an electrical transformer from an interior courtyard to a screened location adjacent to the MBTA tracks for improved utility access; engineering review cleared the change and the board voted to accept the phasing plan.
The planning board voted to accept plan revisions for a multi‑unit site at 110 West Street that relocate an electrical transformer from a courtyard into an open area near the MBTA tracks.
Tim (project representative) told the board that moving the transformer improves Eversource access and frees up the courtyard for residents; no parking loss was anticipated. Board members asked about screening and noise; the applicant said the unit would be landscaped and that it is a transformer rather than a generator, so noise impacts are minimal.
After confirming engineering and building‑department review, the board moved and voted to accept the submitted plan revisions and phasing plan.
Next steps: Applicant will proceed under the approved phasing plan; staff will record the plan revision and ensure screening details are implemented during construction.
