The Keene Planning Board will meet on Monday, November 24, 2025, at 6:30 PM in the 2nd Floor Council Chambers of City Hall to conduct public hearings on the following proposal.
Amendments to the Planning Board Regulations: The Planning Board proposes to amend its subdivision regulations, site development standards, Earth Excavation Regulations, and Application Procedures in the Land Development Code, including Sections 20.2, 21.6, 25.3, 25.5, 26.10, 26.12, 26.14 and 26.19. The proposed amendments are intended to clarify language within the code, correct errors with respect to wording, update submittal requirements to match current practice, and reflect recent changes to state law regarding the timeframes for “Active and Substantial Development” and “Substantial Completion” of subdivision and site plan applications. In addition, the proposed amendments would modify the Board’s Site Plan Review Thresholds to create new thresholds for commercial and multifamily street access permits, modify the threshold for new additions, and establish thresholds for proposals to create new residential dwelling units.
These applications are available for public review at City Hall on the 4th floor, 3 Washington St between the hours of 8:00am-4:30pm. The full agenda and supporting materials will be posted online one week before the meeting on the Planning Board webpage at www.keenenh.gov/planning-board.
