The public has opportunities to shape policy this week as various Haverhill boards meet. In the interest of transparency in government, WHAV provides this list of upcoming meetings every week.
Plans for a six-story, 18-unit building on the site of the former Arthur Sharp Hardware goes before the Haverhill City Council tonight for review and approval of three waivers.
Attorney Michael J. Migliori, representing developer Alan Sfeir, described the riverfront proposal in a letter to councilors as a “vibrant redevelopment” of the roughly quarter-acre site. In its application, the developer says three waivers are needed allowing 18 units where five are required, 18 parking spaces where 27 are required and a height of 91 feet where 55 is the maximum allowed.

The city is seeking applicants to fill vacancies on two prominent city boards License Commission and Conservation Commission.
Mayor James J. Fiorentini is seeking replacements for License Commissioner Gerald A. Sewell, who died unexpectedly this month, and Conservation Commissioner Joseph DiPietro, who is moving out of town.
The three-member Haverhill License Commission is responsible for liquor, automobile sales and food serving licenses. The Conservation Commission is the local environmental enforcement body. It protects land, water and biological resources of the community.
