Selectmen review multiple zoning violations; several cases headed to Superior Court
Summary
The Board reviewed wetland and ADU violations, learned of NHDES input on culvert work, and noted temporary hearings and court actions for properties including Bowman Road (Timmons), 2369 Main Street (Cloutier) and an STR advertising case; a June 24 Superior Court hearing is scheduled for several matters.
Zoning Coordinator and Health Officer Tim Bray ran through a lengthy enforcement report that included wetlands, shoreland, ADU and short-term rental compliance issues. For one matter involving a culvert, the NHDES Wetlands Bureau reviewed the site and indicated a wetland permit was required, noting the area appears rich in Priority Resource Area and may be in the floodplain. Bray has requested updates from state staff and is planning periodic inspections.
The Board noted multiple court actions: a complaint was filed for a Bowman Road violation (Timmons) and a "Temporary hearing will be held on June 24, at 9am at Sullivan County Superior Court." The Cloutier matter at 2369 Main Street resulted in a temporary hearing on May 27 with court orders including cessation of further rentals and a lien placed for municipal legal expenses; the town may return to court if compliance is not achieved. Other STR-related enforcement and vested-permit cases were summarized and will require continued follow-up.
