The Gardner Planning Board Meeting on September 9, 2025, primarily focused on a proposed development for Mount Wachusett Community College at 42 Linus Lane Avenue, which includes a 2,000 sq ft building addition, expanded parking, and drainage improvements. Representatives from Hanigan Engineering presented the plans, addressing questions regarding soil conditions, flood zone mapping, and the handling of floor drains and existing infrastructure. A key point of discussion involved a neighbor’s fence potentially encroaching on the college’s property, which the board agreed to review. The meeting concluded with the continuation of the public hearing to October 14th, and the approval of past meeting minutes and the release of escrow accounts for a previously approved subdivision.
