The Boston Planning & Development Agency’s board of directors on Thursday approved roughly 611K SF of new developments, including 420 residential units, and new climate and resiliency measures.The board approved a zero-carbon zoning initiative that would push new developments to comply with the city’s carbon emission goals when they first open, according to a release from the BPDA.The new policy, which still needs approval from the Zoning Commission, would set a net-zero emissions requirement for developments filed after July 1, 2025, that have at least 15 units or a minimum of 20K SF.
