Summary

The DRB reapproved a previously issued subdivision permit for the Rodewald property after Jenny Sweet-McDonnell requested a waiver of rehearing, citing no material changes; the board approved the reapplication and will sign the final mylar for recording.

The Development Review Board reapproved a subdivision for property associated with Brenda Rodewald after a reapplication by Jenny Sweet-McDonnell, who identified herself as Brenda Rodewald’s daughter and legal guardian. The original permit had been approved in 2024 but the final mylar was not recorded within the required 180-day window. Sweet-McDonnell requested a waiver of the rehearing process on the basis that there have been no material changes to the plan or surrounding facts.

Commissioners reviewed the original mylar and compared the reapplication to a prior reapplication (Ainsworth, 2023) to guide consistency. Commissioner Dana Colson and Commissioner Andrew Cliburn voiced support for a streamlined approach. At the meeting Andrew Cliburn moved to reapprove the subdivision and grant the waiver of rehearing; Dana Colson seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The applicant will receive a letter of approval and the mylar will be signed for recording with the Town Clerk within the required window.
