Longer-form draft.
During the April 14 Andover Planning Board meeting, a significant administrative issue came to light regarding the Vertex Towers cell tower project in Cilleyville. The Land Use office identified that official meeting minutes regarding previous cell tower approvals are conflicting and inaccurate.

Because the written record does not match the actual proceedings, the Board has had to task the Land Use office with reconstructing the minutes from audio recordings for both the Planning Board and the Zoning Board of Adjustment. This is a serious matter, as accurate records are the foundation of public trust and legal clarity for major infrastructure projects.

In addition to this record-keeping issue, the meeting revealed internal divisions within the Board. The election for Board Chair resulted in a split 4-3 vote, indicating a lack of consensus regarding the Board's leadership. 

We are tracking these developments to ensure that the reconstructed records are accurate and that the Board maintains the transparency Andover residents deserve. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/andover/planning-board/2026-04-14/ #MeetingWatch #AndoverNH
