RCN Redevelopment Public IAG Meeting Announced

The Boston Planning & Development  Agency (formerly BRA) will be holding an Impact Advisory Group (IAG) Public Meeting regarding 105 West 1st St (RCN site) on:

Laboure Center
275 West Broadway (at D St)

The public is welcome to attend. The purpose of this meeting is a little different than that of a traditional community meeting. As part of the development review process, IAG members work closely with BPDA staff to identify the impacts of a project and recommend appropriate community benefits to offset those impacts. IAG meetings prioritize discussion between the project proponent (i.e. the developer) and IAG members. If time remains at the end of the meeting, BPDA staff will open the floor to other community members in attendance. 

Comment deadline extended to April 21, 2017.  Submit your comments to Michael RooneyBPDA Project Manager
