Braintree Subdivision Proposal Gets Neighborhood Meeting Thursday

The Whites Hill Drive subdivision plan goes before the Planning Board Jan. 14.

District 4 Councilor Stephen O'Brien will host a neighborhood meeting Thursday, Jan 9 at 7 p.m. to address a proposed subdivision on Whites Hill Drive that will be the subject of a hearing next week.

The meeting Thursday will be held at Morrison Elementary School, a change of venue from the original Eldridge School site that was previously announced.

O'Brien said he is holding the meeting to give residents correct information about the proposal ahead of the hearing.

The Braintree Planing Board will be holding a public hearing on Tuesday, Jan. 14, 2014 at 8 p.m. to review a proposal submitted by OIB Corporation to further subdivide Lot #3 (50 Whites Hill Drive) into 17 lots.

Whites Hill Drive is a small road off the east side of Liberty Street between Lincoln Street and Morrison School. 

OIB Corporation is listed with the Secretary of the Commonwealth at 1 Industrial Way in Georgetown, the same address as Caruso & McGovern Construction Co. Stephen Caruso is listed as the corporation's president and CEO.

Founded in 1983, Caruso & McGovern offers General Contracting, Construction Management, Site Development and Planning and Coordinating of various types of Commercial, Retail and Residential Projects, according to its website.

The development is in an area of District 4 that abuts District 5, and so Councilor Michael Owens will also be on hand Thursday evening to address residents' concerns. 

For additional information, contact Clerk of the Council Jim Casey at 781-794-8152 or email O'Brien at scobrien@braintreema.gov.
