Board backs cap of one parking space per residence and one for ADU
Summary
Planning Director Robyn Payson presented Article 2, which would set the maximum required parking to one space for the primary residence and one for an ADU; the Planning Board voted to recommend the article to the ballot.
Planning Director Robyn Payson presented Article 2, which proposes that 'The maximum required number of parking spaces is 1 for the primary residence and 1 for the ADU.' Kathy Luiz asked whether dwellings would be limited to a single parking space; Payson responded that the town can require only one parking space but property owners can provide additional spaces. The Board voted unanimously to recommend placing the article on the Town Meeting ballot.
Supporters said the change clarifies the minimum parking requirement for ADUs, while members asked for clarity on practical impacts for households with multiple vehicles. The Board’s motion to recommend the article carried unanimously; no roll-call was recorded.
