The state Department of Environmental Conservation is investigating a housing development project in Middleburgh after town Planning Board members approved substantial changes to the project without appropriate review or additional public input.
Amid the ongoing DEC investigation, Middleburgh Planning Board members and village residents clashed over the Middleburgh Meadows project at the Planning Board’s monthly meeting last week.
A major focus of the debate was the waiver the Planning Board issued for Carver Companies, the project’s developer, to skip village approval for changes to its development plan.

Massachusetts residents who would be neighbors of Amazon’s proposed “last-mile” distribution facility continue to raise concerns surrounding traffic, noise, and the environmental impacts the facility could have on their neighborhood.
Worcester residents echoed those concerns Monday at a Panning Board meeting and called for stronger commitments to worker protections, local hiring and a community benefits agreement, the Telegram & Gazette reported.
