Smithfield board sets July 8, 2026 meeting, grants extension for 23-021, and records incomplete 25-018 application

The Smithfield Zoning Board of Review on Nov. 5 took several administrative actions:

- The board voted to set the July 2026 meeting date for July 8, 2026. Members noted the meeting can be canceled later if the July agenda is light. The motion passed by voice vote.

- The board granted a second one-year extension for application 23-021 (Howard and Shales Property LLC; property at 80 Douglas Pike / Flat 42, Lot 138). Staff reported a recording/typographical error in a prior decision’s expiration date; the board corrected the record and approved the extension, noting the extension will run from the corrected December 2024 decision date and extend the approval through December 2026.

- For application 25-018 (Carolina Rosario / Darwin Salcedo; 206 Bridal Road; animal raising/noncommercial chickens), staff and the board found required notice and supporting documentation had not been submitted. The board recorded that the matter was not properly before them and took no action; the applicant may refile with complete notice and fees.

All procedural motions reported in the transcript were recorded as passing with a standard ‘‘Aye’’ voice vote and no recorded dissents.
