REBA Land Use and Zoning Section Webinar on September 2nd

 

Understanding the New Revisions to Chapter 40A

Please join REBA’s Land Use & Zoning Section for a webinar, open to all REBA members, from 12 to 1 pm on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. Kathleen Heyer of Pierce Atwood LLP, Susan Murphy of Dain, Torpy, Le Ray, Wiest and Garner, PC, and Donna Brewer of Harrington Heep LLP, will present.

 

On July 9th, significant amendments to Chapter 40A, many of which were a direct consequence of REBA’s efforts, were enacted. These revisions all focus on easing housing production. Among the many changes, the measure expands by-right development for preexisting nonconforming structures and residential uses and revises the standard applicable to variances. Our panelists will discuss the impact on property owners, as well as municipalities, and address questions raised by these changes.

This REBA eNews is sponsored by:

“Dain, Torpy, Le Ray, Wiest & Garner, PC is the premier real estate boutique law firm in Massachusetts, counselling owners, developers, investors, tenants, and managers of commercial real estate.”
