Fall River Government TV Apr 9, 2026 YouTube Report Issue

The Fall River Planning Board convened on April 8th, 2026, addressing several land use applications and a waterways license request. The primary discussion revolved around a roadway reconstruction plan for Spring Street, proposed by Tividant Investments, to access lots in Tiverton, Rhode Island. This project raised significant concerns regarding drainage into Fall River, the need for extensive waivers due to narrow existing right-of-ways, the condition of Bold's Lane, and the potential for future development. City Engineer Dan Aguar outlined several outstanding issues, including the need for drainage calculations, documentation of legal construction rights, and clarification on unpermitted work. Board members expressed concerns about the lack of lighting, above-ground utilities, and the long-term impact of future development on Fall River's infrastructure. Ultimately, this item was tabled to the next meeting to allow the applicant to address the identified issues, passing with a 4-0 vote.
