BROOKLINE --- Two housing advocacy groups have reached agreement on a compliance plan for the MBTA Communities Act. The agreement builds on a “consensus plan” put forward by Brookline town staff which would rezone Harvard Street to make it easier for developers to build multifamily housing in buildings as tall as four stories. There is still a long road to passage, and final approval rests with Town Meeting members who would need to approve the measure by a two-thirds vote next month.
