[Massplanners] Recent OSRD Projects

[ruralplanningassociates at crocker.com]

Chris:

 

Swallow Rise out here in Wendell comes to mind.  It was finally approved by Wendell Planning Board last year.  It’s not OSRD, rather an NRPZ (similar in some ways to OSRD but not based on underlying zoning, and more protective).  This project has over 100 acres, about 15 of which make up two development envelopes for a maximum of about 15 homes.  The rest - fields, forest, and water bodies - is protected and available for farming and forestry. I can provide more info to anyone interested.

Hi Chris,

Here's one that has just recently begun construction, after many delays. 

Go to :

 <https://www.georgetownma.gov/planning-board/pages/planning-board-projects-current> https://www.georgetownma.gov/planning-board/pages/planning-board-projects-current

And scroll down to 66 Parish Road for the related files.

A bit over 30 acres will remain natural. 

Best,
H. LaCortiglia

Happy Friday, 

 

Following up on our 2020 OSRD workshop just before the pandemic hit, I am interested in any recent Open Space Residential or Conservation Subdivisions approved and or started construction over the past two years. Anything happening out there?

 

I also welcome any MA OSRD projects over the years in your community or nearby, that you think are models for emulating?

 

Thanks and have a good weekend.

 

Chris
