Selectmen vote in nonpublic session to require developer reimburse $33,584 for missed infrastructure upgrades
Summary
After nonpublic discussion July 24, the Board of Selectmen voted 2–1 to require a developer reimburse Hillsborough $33,584 for infrastructure upgrades omitted from the developer’s final cost calculations on the Hillsborough Heights project.
During a nonpublic session July 24 held under RSA 91‑A:3 II(c) (reputation), the Hillsborough Board of Selectmen discussed infrastructure upgrades associated with the Hillsborough Heights project and voted that the developer reimburse the town $33,584 for upgrades that were omitted from the developer’s final cost calculations.
According to the minutes, InvestNH provided $840,000 that related to the project and the Selectboard had earlier voted to fund upgrades considered to be for the town’s benefit rather than the developer’s. The minutes state the omission occurred because a dismissed engineer did not pass upgrade costs to the successor engineer and that the upgrades had been included in a 2022 “will serve” letter.
After a lengthy discussion the motion to require reimbursement was made by Selectman Richard Pelletier and seconded by Selectwoman Iris Campbell; the motion passed with two votes in favor (Pelletier and Campbell) and one opposed (Chairman James C. Bailey). The minutes record the vote as 2 in favor, 1 opposed. The board returned to public session at 8:19 p.m.
The minutes indicate the town will seek reimbursement in the amount specified; they do not record further enforcement steps or timelines for repayment in the public record.
