NOTICE: Planning Board Grants Special Permit for Medical Office Building at 120 Boston Rd.

In a 5-0 vote, the Planning Board granted a special permit for construction of a medical office building at 120 Boston Road to PCM Realty Trust. The special permit grants permission to construct a two-story, 16,600 square foot building on the 3-acre site, including landscaping and parking for 98 vehicles. PCM Realty Trust plans to file for a building permit and begin construction this spring.

The Planning Board found that, "The proposed special permit plan serves social and community needs by constructing a new building for medical offices." The Board further noted that "The applicant agreed to install a 5 foot wide sidewalk along the frontage of Route 119."

Included in the list of conditions for issuance of the Special Permit, PCM Realty is required to coordinate plans with the Massachusetts DOT regarding the access (curb cut) permit on Boston Road, screen rooftop HVAC equipment from view as shown in the architectural plans, provide 'vegetative screening' to minimize headlight glare onto Rte. 119, install a fire hydrant in the rear of the property per the recommendation of the Fire chief, and connect with public water and sewer systems.

The Planning Board still needs to grant permission to erect a sign on the property, which will be discussed and settled at a separate hearing on February 13.
