The Lakeville Planning Board on Feb. 13 approved a definitive subdivision plan for 43 Main Street, accepting a final conditions document reached between the project proponent and planning staff.

Project proponent John O'Leary told the board that he and planning staffer Nancy exchanged a draft condition document and had "come to what I think is a good, final condition document" and were prepared to discuss any proposed changes. Nancy and the board then reviewed two specific edits: deletion of a sentence referencing hydrologic calculations from condition 12 in favor of a written certification that the stormwater system had been constructed in substantial compliance with the approved stormwater management report, and removal of a sentence in condition 30 tied to a trash compactor requirement taken from a prior 40B approval.

Nancy explained the stormwater change was intended to capture the full stormwater management report on the plan of record without embedding the 400‑page report itself, saying the inserted language would require "a written certification that the stormwater system has been constructed in substantial compliance with the approved plan's stormwater management report." O'Leary said he was comfortable with that approach. On the trash compactor line, O'Leary explained the condition was taken from another project and concerned resident noise; he told the board the development will use private hauling operated by the HOA and said he was "somewhat indifferent" if the board preferred to keep the sentence.

After brief board discussion, a board member moved to approve the 43 Main Street subdivision plan as drafted with the minor edits to conditions 12 and 30; another member seconded. The chair called the motion and announced that the motion carried. The board directed staff to finalize the decision document and noted the approval will be recorded at the registry of deeds along with the condition document.
