Developer appeals code enforcement findings; town to schedule zoning/appeals hearing

Select Board · August 13, 2026

Summary

Apple Valley Development LLC (Iron Tales) filed an appeal disputing the town's enforcement actions and fees; the Select Board said the appeal will go to the zoning/appeals process and the town will notify parties and schedule a hearing.

Town staff reported that the town received an appeal from counsel on behalf of Apple Valley Development LLC (doing business as Iron Tales) challenging prior enforcement and fee assessments.

Town Administrator (speaker 2) summarized the appeal, saying it alleges the Select Board lacked authority to impose and collect fees, that the town's noise findings did not comply with the ordinance, that the record does not prove the claimed attendance numbers, and that the town did not properly address authorization for outdoor entertainment. The administrator said the appellant listed a series of requested records and relief and that the matter "will be scheduled in the ordinance" procedure for appeals; the town will notify interested parties and outline the timeframe for hearings.

Board members discussed next steps and legal process; staff said they have referred relevant freedom-of-information questions to counsel and will keep the board posted on scheduling and required notice to abutters and other interested parties.
