Longer-form draft.
During the May 27 Conservation Commission meeting, two major issues highlighted the ongoing struggle to balance development with environmental protection in Goffstown. First, the Commission addressed reports of construction violations on Mountain Base Pond Road. Evidence was presented suggesting that a developer may have violated approved plans by clearing trees within the protected buffer and causing runoff into a nearby stream. In response, the Commission is planning to file a formal complaint and will coordinate with the DPW to address the violation. Second, the Commission reviewed a proposal for a detached duplex at 12 South Mass Street LLC. While the review is ongoing, members specifically flagged the 'massive increase in impervious surface' the project would create. The primary concern remains how this development will impact local drainage and increase the risk of stormwater runoff for the surrounding area. The Commission's comments on these matters will be forwarded to the Planning Board for further review. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/goffstown/conservation-commission/2026-05-27/ #MeetingWatch #GoffstownNH
