The Manchester Planning & Zoning Board voted on Jan. 16 to grant a waiver and approve an amendment to the previously approved site plan for 896 Gough Falls Road, a property with an automotive repair business in the IND zoning district.
The waiver, from Section 8.3.b.3, permits the project to retain 21 existing landscaping trees rather than add eight additional trees that would otherwise be required. Board members moved and seconded the waiver and voted in favor. The amendment application, submitted by Keech Nordstrom Associates for IVT LLC, proposes a new parking area and related changes to drainage, landscaping, and utilities; the board approved the amendment with the findings of fact and with staff recommendations, including items from the original approval.
Board member Bob Gagne moved to approve the amendment; a second was recorded and the motion passed. The board also approved the associated waiver prior to approving the amendment.
