At its Jan. 14 meeting the Braintree Planning Board handled several administrative items and routine votes.

The board voted to confirm Member McCamey (listed in the minutes as clerk) to sign approval‑not‑required and subdivision plans and to execute other recordings as required. The board also voted to authorize the planning director to sign decisions on behalf of the board for recording at the registry of deeds.

The board approved the meeting minutes (motion by Member Connolly, second by Member Kent) and accepted correspondence into the public record.

Several items on the published agenda were continued without testimony to the Feb. 11 meeting: a minor modification request for 81,040 Arnold Street (noted on the agenda as tabled without testimony) and the public hearing for 193 Rear Grove Street (also continued without testimony to Feb. 11). The board formally continued the site plan public hearing for 7 Hawthorne Road and 338 Elm Street to Feb. 11 (see separate article).
