At the March 17 Zoning Board meeting, a major change was approved for 4 Mill Rd. What was once a wood storage structure is now set to become a commercial hub including a brewery, restaurant, bakery, and function hall. 🧵 #MeetingWatch #AndoverNH
The Board granted a Special Exception for the expansion, making the approval contingent on state permits. This transition from industrial storage to hospitality use will likely increase local traffic and activity levels near Mill Road.
While the vote was unanimous, the shift from wood storage to a multi-use commercial site is a significant change for the neighborhood. Residents should stay engaged to see how traffic and noise impacts are handled moving forward. #Andover #LocalGov https://meetingwatch.org/nh/andover/zoning-board/2026-03-17/
At the March 17 Zoning Board of Adjustment meeting, the board approved a special exception application for 4 Mill Rd, marking a significant change in how that property will be used. According to the application, the existing wood storage structure will be enclosed and expanded to accommodate a variety of commercial uses, including a brewery, restaurant, bakery, and function hall. While the board’s approval is contingent upon the applicant receiving all required state permits, the decision transitions the site from passive wood storage to active hospitality and commercial use. This change is likely to impact the surrounding area through increased traffic and noise. Residents living near Mill Road should keep a close eye on this development to ensure that the transition from storage to a multi-use commercial hub is managed in a way that respects the character of the neighborhood. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/andover/zoning-board/2026-03-17/ #MeetingWatch #AndoverNH
