Boxborough Housing Board approved August 25 for its Housing Production Forum while addressing a surge in rental assistance demand. Community Services Coordinator Wendy Trinks reported the Boxborough Rental Assistance Program waitlist has grown to six families; tenants at Brook Village face costs from pipe replacement work, straining landlord-tenant relations. The board discussed next steps for the Stow Road property under a warrant-approved Housing Production Plan, with Member Phyn Vermin proposing focus on MBTA zoning viability and sustainable housing beyond "paper compliance." Community outreach plans include a Fifer's Day information table and a separate survey of affordable housing occupants.
