Top issues during term (4)(Development)
Workforce housing at 9 Sunset Lane
Financed through NH Housing tax credits and soft loans, with rents capped so tenants pay no more than about 30% of income; affordability covenants expected to run 60-75 years.
Acorn property acquisition delay
Delay could affect timing of a Recreational Trails Program grant application due in late May.
Cottage Court development redesign off Constitution Drive
The board's waiver split means the developer pays the lower townhouse school impact fee but the full $1,826 single-family recreation fee per unit — about a $13,000 difference overall.
Stormwater Waiver for South River Road Gas Station
