Portsmouth board approves meeting minutes and grants second extension for Lot 164 property
Summary
At a Portsmouth municipal meeting, the board approved minutes for Jan. 16 and March 20, 2025, and unanimously granted a second extension request from Ray Perry for a property identified on the tax assessor's map as Lot 164.
The Portsmouth municipal board approved procedural minutes for Jan. 16 and March 20, 2025, and unanimously granted a second extension request from applicant Ray Perry for a property identified on the tax assessor's map as Lot 164, the board record shows.
The board moved and seconded to approve the Jan. 16, 2025 minutes and later the March 20, 2025 minutes; members voiced “aye” for both votes. For the extension request, the transcript shows the applicant (identified as Ray Perry) sought a second extension; Ms. Horrocks and the vice chair voiced support and the motion passed unanimously.
During discussion a board member asked whether extensions were limited to one year; the record includes a short exchange noting differing views about allowable extension length but does not record a definitive statutory citation or written condition limiting the extension. The board did not specify additional conditions tied to the extension during the meeting.
The approvals are procedural and administrative: the minutes approvals record the board’s prior proceedings, and the extension allows the applicant additional time under the board’s existing file for the referenced lot. The transcript does not record specific new deadlines or permit actions tied to the extension.
