CHARLESTOWN — The planning commission has approved a plan that would lead to the construction of lease-based low and moderate income housing off of Shannock Road.

The Charlestown Planning Commission approved the Shannock Village Cottages project at its April 18 meeting. Four buildings will house the 11 units of housing on a 4.7-acre parcel off 1639 Shannock Road. 

The plan is consistent with the town’s affordable housing plan, according to Town Planner Jane Weidman.

“The town appreciates the hard work and  efforts that went into designing and securing funding for this project, which we believe will result in a development that the community will be proud of,” she said.
