Planning Board · Meeting of April 7, 2026
STOW — Planning Board approves mixed-use building at Samuel Prescott Drive. The Board unanimously granted a special permit and site plan approval, imposing conditions on easement documentation, landscaping, signage, and private road maintenance. Simultaneously, the Board reviewed a stormwater management bylaw slated for May Town Meeting, with consultant Jaurice Schwartz explaining that the one-acre land disturbance threshold and MS4 permit compliance framework must be adopted by August 3 to avoid EPA fines.
In the Hemenway Farm Planned Conservation Development continuation, applicant Mark White reported the subdivision roadway shifted east to avoid contamination, with an affordable housing triplex of three units designed at 1,545 to 1,590 square feet each; the public hearing was continued to May 5, 2026.
