Housing Trust Delays Five-Year Plan Vote
Wellesley Affordable Housing Trust postponed votes on its draft Five-Year Action Plan and minutes to November 18.
Affordable Housing Trust · Meeting of October 28, 2026
Wellesley Affordable Housing Trust postponed votes on its draft Five-Year Action Plan and minutes to November 18. Consultant Jen Goldson presented a tracked comment log and red-lined draft after incorporating edits from members Kenny Largess and Holly Grace, but Chair Micah O'Neil and others said they had not reviewed it closely enough to vote, with one trustee saying he wanted "one more full read through." Trustees discussed Jumbo Capital Properties' purchase of 110 Cedar Street, a 1.5-acre parcel zoned for up to 25 units, and the developer's separate plan to rezone 88 Worcester Street for assisted living and memory care housing. The board agreed to finalize a memorandum of understanding with the Wellesley Housing Authority before approaching Jumbo Capital, and set next meetings for November 18 and December 16, both at 8 a.m.
