Select Board schedules Sept. 28 hearing to consider removing Legal Trail 27
Summary
The board set a public hearing (with a site visit to be coordinated) for Sept. 28 to consider conversion/removal of Legal Trail 27, a short trail fragment that a landowner says reduces the unencumbered acreage of a proposed lot.
The Jamaica Select Board agreed to request a Windham Regional Commission hearing date and scheduled the town-level hearing for Sept. 28 to consider removing or converting Legal Trail 27. Town staff explained LT27 is a short fragment—"only about 50 ft long or 100 ft long"—that, as drawn, reduces the usable area of a nearby parcel and that the planning commission has recommended its removal.
Board members said the process will include a site review and public hearing notice; the planning commission previously considered multiple road-to-trail conversions and the board may handle some or all of the commission's recommendations. The hearing notice and any required field visit will be coordinated with the landowner and published according to statutory warning requirements.
