Carlisle Planning Board unanimously advances six zoning articles to Annual Town Meeting
CARLISLE -- March 16, 2026, Carlisle Planning Board unanimously recommends six zoning bylaw amendments for the 2026 Annual Town Meeting. Meeting remotely on March 16, Chair Rob Almeida and members Andrew Boardman, Abby Flanagan, Alan Boghossian, Sue Felschen, and Pat Nelson voted to advance articles covering exterior lighting, MBTA Communities implementation, mixed-use development, wireless facilities, joint parking, a limited-business height limit, and a building-commissioner title change, all as printed in the warrant. The wireless and joint parking articles drew the most discussion; Flanagan warned that "people throwing misinformation" could derail the wireless vote on the Town Meeting floor, and the board is racing a Wednesday noon deadline to submit supplemental FAQ materials and a joint-parking overlap graphic to the briefing book. The board also voted unanimously to release three units, 10, 22, and 28 Hatch Farm Lane, from a restrictive covenant at the Concord Culinary Cottages planned residential development, with $8,265.90 in outstanding drainage work to be secured by the remaining encumbered unit at 16 Hatch Farm Lane.
