Brookline Compliance With The MBTA Communities Act

What is the town doing to comply with the MBTA-CA?

The town is proceeding in two ways:

  1. The Planning department is developing a zoning update for Harvard Street.
  2. The Select Board has charged the MBTA-CA Multifamily Permitting Committee with exploring other options.

The Planning Department's web page devoted to this project answers this question in detail.

As of September 24, five warrant articles have been submitted: four by the Select Board and one (a duplicate of one of the Select Board warrant articles) by a group of town meeting members.
