The Portsmouth Planning Board meeting held on September 11, 2025, focused on several key agenda items, including the approval of previous meeting minutes and a discussion regarding a major land development project known as Cutler Court.
The meeting commenced with the board confirming a quorum, followed by the approval of the minutes from the August 14, 2025, meeting. A minor correction was made to the minutes, changing "planning" to "planning and public works departments." The motion to accept the amended minutes was unanimously approved.
The primary topic of discussion was the continuation of the Cutler Court project, which involves property located at Tax Assessor Plat 58, Lot 49. BMC Realty Partners, the applicant, requested minor modifications to the approved plan, specifically to reduce the length of roadside drainage swales. John Bridal, a registered professional land surveyor and engineer, represented the applicant and provided details about the proposed changes. He noted that the modifications aim to address drainage issues affecting some residents in the area.
The board's deliberations on the Cutler Court project are part of ongoing efforts to ensure that local developments meet community needs while addressing environmental concerns. Further discussions and decisions regarding this project are expected in future meetings.
