Planning Board Meeting
Planning Board continued detailed deliberations on the large Rocky Hill site-plan/definitive subdivision (staff updated the draft decision with MEPA-derived conditions including traffic mitigation, truck-routing/fill controls, phasing, affordable-housing documentation and easements). The board continued and scheduled further review of the contested 29 Lake Attitash Road special-permit (stormwater, WRP-district zoning/Zone A vs C, and right‑of‑way concerns) and received an accessory-dwelling-unit proposal for 30 Belmont St (DRC/TRC referrals).
