WESTBOROUGH – Developer Farooq Ansari has some deadlines to meet.
During its meeting on Aug. 22, the Planning Board imposed a Sept. 1 deadline to finish landscaping, relocate some construction debris and complete other tasks at Village Commons located at 1 Gleason St.
In addition, Ansari has until Nov. 1 to complete paving and install curb cuts.
Residents at Village Commons have complained for months about unfinished details, including the clubhouse.
Director of Planning Jenny Gingras said an inspection of the site will be conducted “soon after” the Sept. 1 deadline. If the work has not been completed, the town could levy fines of up to $300 per day until the work is done.
