Acton: OKs 350-unit 40B project on Concord border
ACTON --- A 350-unit housing development just over the Acton border in Concord cleared one of its last hurdles in early October as the Acton Zoning Board of Appeals gave its OK. The project needed Acton's approval because a major road into the project is in Acton. The town will receive $900,000 from the project developer - Trammel Crow Residential - to mitigate traffic impact. In June, the Concord ZBA also approved the 40B rental project, which will increase the town's percentage of affordable housing to over 10 percent, meaning it has greater control over future 40B proposals.
