[Massplanners] Site Plans & Special Permits

[Stephen Wallace]

Fellow Planners:

For projects in your towns that require BOTH a Special Permit AND Site Plan approval, how many of you have just ONE board (PB or ZBA) issue both permits at the same time?

Right now in Sterling, a new business requiring both approvals often spend months with the ZBA getting their Special Permit, then another few months getting Site Plan approval from the Planning Board.  I'm trying to talk my boards into having one or the other issue both approvals.

Thanks in advance.
