The Planning Board received a Site Plan Review Application for a Large Scale Ground Mounted Solar Installation at 105 Old Post Road from BlueWave on October 6, 2026. This document is very large (100+ MB) and some people have had trouble viewing it as a result. Please try downloading it, rather than viewing it in your browser. We have requested that it be broken into smaller pieces for ease of review.
The hearing for this project is scheduled for December 3, 2026, 6:30pm at the R. H. Conwell School.
The Planning Board received a Preliminary Plan for Subdivision at 105 Old Post Road on January 29, 2026. No subsequent Definitive Plan of Subdivision was received, therefore the zoning freeze is no longer in effect. The changes to the Site Plan Review process approved by Town Meeting in February 2026 will apply to this project. The details of the amendment can be found here. The only change is to section 2.6.7 of the bylaws.
During the Special Town Meeting on February 24, 2026, a question was asked about the case law supporting zoning freezes resulting from the submission of Preliminary Plans of Subdivision. Town Counsel cited a case he referred to as “Broken Stone” from 2000. More information about that case can be found here at findlaw.com or here at justia.com.
