Impact analysis
Private investment in an existing industrial campus; no town cost identified.

Zoning Board of Appeals - Jul 28, 2026
Instead of building a 500-plus-space parking lot, XLI will provide 195 spaces based on its actual three-shift staffing. The board noted less asphalt means less stormwater runoff and pollution — a win for the environment.

Planning Board - May 12, 2026
XLI wants to nearly double its plant to about 195,500 square feet and add roughly 40 jobs, but needs major parking, rear-setback, and loading-dock variances. Ten Jacklyn and McNair Drive residents raised concerns about noise, light, stormwater, wildlife, and property values before the board continued the case to June.
Conservation Board - Jan 5, 2026
The warehouse project at 40 Jetview Drive has landscaping plans the board is happy with, and it now has a designated board member watching it going forward.
