Rivian seeks Class I auto dealer license at 600 Market Street; board requests test-drive route details
Summary
Rivian, LLC applied for a Class I auto dealer license for 600 Market Street; the Lynnfield Select Board requested detailed plans for a proposed test-drive route and voted to consider those plans at its June 8 meeting rather than decide the license on May 20.
Rivian, LLC presented an application for a Class I auto dealer license at 600 Market Street on May 20, 2026. Bryan Rhie, representing Rivian, attended the Select Board meeting to discuss the proposal. Rather than decide on the license at the May 20 session, the Board voted to bring detailed plans for a proposed test-drive route to its June 8 meeting for further review.
The transcript records the Boards action as: "Vote: To bring plans for test drive route to next Select Board Meeting 6/8/2026." No final decision on the dealer license was recorded during the May 20 meeting, and the transcript does not include a board vote to approve or deny the license application at this time.
The Board's request signals attention to public-safety and traffic-routing considerations associated with on-road vehicle demonstrations and dealer test drives. The application will return to the Board with route plans and related materials on June 8, when the Board may take final action.
