Dunkin project approved by Inland Wetlands Commission; planning review and crosswalk request to follow
Summary
The Inland Wetlands Commission approved a Dunkin Donuts project for a new building across from Stop and Shop; Selectman Ohler said the project will next go to Planning and Zoning and the town is asking for a crosswalk at the site.
Selectman Brian Ohler reported May 5 that the Dunkin Donuts project — a new building across from Stop and Shop with seating, parking and a drive‑through — received approval from the Inland Wetlands Commission. Ohler said the developer will next appear before the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Ohler said the town is also requesting a crosswalk in the vicinity to improve pedestrian safety. The project remains subject to Planning and Zoning review and any local permitting or conditions that commission may impose.
Why it matters: the proposal affects traffic and pedestrian access near a commercial corridor; a crosswalk request signals the town's concern for pedestrian safety as development proceeds.
What’s next: developer and town staff will proceed through Planning and Zoning; any crosswalk planning will depend on approvals, DOT coordination and project timing.
