The Millis Planning Board made significant strides during their meeting on May 13, 2025, approving multiple motions that will impact local development and community events.

The board unanimously approved six waivers submitted by LAL Engineering, streamlining the process for upcoming projects. This decision reflects the board's commitment to facilitating development while ensuring compliance with local regulations.

In a notable move, the board also granted a special permit for a project at 1380 Main Street, contingent upon necessary revisions to the site plan and the approval of the town council regarding legal opinions on right-of-way issues. This approval is expected to advance the development process, allowing for timely project implementation.

Additionally, the board addressed a request for a temporary structure at 1313 Main Street, specifically for a tent installation by Tractor Supply. However, the applicant withdrew the request due to time constraints, leading the board to close the public hearing on this matter.

The meeting concluded with the approval of minutes from the previous session, ensuring transparency and continuity in the board's proceedings. These decisions highlight the Planning Board's proactive approach to managing local development and community needs, setting the stage for future growth in Millis.
