The Lowell Planning Board will discuss the option of requesting that the City Council adopt the ordinance allowed under MGL 39 Section 23D. This would allow a Board to proceed with a public hearing when one member of the Board is absent, and allow that Board member to later participate in deliberations and voting on that matter, provided that Board member review the video or other transcript of the meeting that was missed. Adoption of such a regulation for the Planning Board would require a City Council ordinance.
