Community disenfranchisement due to procedural failure

Holderness residents were effectively locked out of the Master Plan process after the USPS failed to mail out required survey postcards. The Planning Board met on 3/17 to address this failure and extend the deadline to April... https://meetingwatch.org/nh/holderness/planning-board/2026-03-17/ #MeetingWatch #HoldernessNH

Impact on community long-term planning

The Master Plan dictates our town's long-term land use and housing. Because residents didn't receive the initial survey notifications, the accuracy of our town's future vision is at risk. The deadline is now extended to April 3. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/holderness/planning-board/2026-03-17/ #MeetingWatch #HoldernessNH

The Master Plan isn't just paperwork—it dictates our town's future land use, housing, and services. Without these notifications, residents couldn't participate in shaping the vision for our community.

Longer-form draft.
A significant error has disrupted the community's ability to participate in Holderness's long-term planning. During the March 17 Planning Board meeting, it was revealed that the USPS failed to mail out the survey postcards that were supposed to notify residents about the Master Plan survey.

Because these notifications never reached many households, residents were effectively unable to provide input on a document that will dictate our town's land use, housing, and services for years to come. This error directly impacts the quality and accuracy of the town's future vision.

In response, the Board has extended the Master Plan survey deadline to April 3, 2026. The town's consultant has been tasked with sending out new announcements and posters to ensure residents are actually aware of the opportunity to participate. The board is also pursuing a refund from the USPS for the failed mailing. 

If you haven't had a chance to participate in the Master Plan process, please look for new announcements and make sure your voice is included before the new April 3 deadline. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/holderness/planning-board/2026-03-17/ #MeetingWatch #HoldernessNH
