[Massplanners] [EXTERNAL] Rescind - public hearing?

[Richard Harris]

So, they endorsed the plans without the owner having satisfied all
conditions for endorsement?

I would agree - go through the same procedures as an original application:
notices to abutters and owners, publication, and hearing.

Thank you
