The Planning Board continued the public hearing for 3 Thayer Street to Nov. 19, at the request of staff and the applicant, to allow completion of peer review of drainage and site work.

Attorney Edward Fleming presented the application for Boston Property Management LLC, noting the developer’s prior work nearby. Civil engineer Chi Man described a proposed subsurface Caltech recharge system sized to capture most roof runoff and reduce stormwater discharge to the city system; he said the design would capture nearly all runoff for a 2-year storm and substantially reduce volumes for larger storms. Architect Glenn Hoffman described the three-story building with eight condominium units and an architecturally durable first-floor material (sandblasted concrete masonry units) and fiberglass window systems.

The board set a continued hearing date of Nov. 19 to allow peer-review consultants time to complete drainage review and for the applicant to respond to comments. No vote on site plan approval or the requested parking waiver was taken at this meeting.
