Planning Board authorizes chair to hire Keach for HOP grant work and zoning review
Summary
The Planning Board voted unanimously to authorize the chair to engage consultant Steve Keach to maximize HOP grant expenditures, perform soils and water analysis, and review zoning regulations for coherence.
The Candia Planning Board on April 1 voted to authorize Chairman Tim D’Arcy to engage consultant Steve Keach to help maximize expenditures of a HOP grant by initiating soils and water analysis and to review town zoning ordinances for consistency.
During discussion Board members noted that completing soils and water analysis under the HOP grant would make it easier to identify areas suitable for medium-density housing. Kevin Coughlin moved to authorize the chair to engage Keach for the HOP grant and zoning review; Mark Chalbeck seconded and the motion passed with all members voting in favor.
The motion instructs the chair to proceed with consultant engagement; the Board did not specify a contract value at the meeting. The Board also discussed timing for warrant articles and potential zoning changes that would require public hearings at later dates.
