The HDC approved a solar array at 6 Broad Street on June 4. The board found the array is not on a historic building and is hidden from public view. Approval is contingent on Planning Board consent. #HollisNH #Solar https://meetingwatch.org/nh/hollis/historic-district-commission/2026-06-04/ #MeetingWatch

The HDC plans to request a dedicated spot on the June 22 Select Board agenda—not just for public comment, but for a formal discussion on treating the Farley building as a valued town property.
The commission noted support from the Heritage Commission and Historical Society in this effort. Residents should prepare to engage when this moves to the Select Board next week. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/hollis/historic-district-commission/2026-06-04/
During the June 4 Historic District Commission (HDC) meeting, the conversation shifted from standard permit applications to a broader effort regarding local preservation. The commission discussed a formal plan to advocate for the protection of the Farley building. Rather than simply offering public comment, the HDC intends to request a dedicated discussion slot on the Select Board's June 22 agenda to present the Farley building as a significant town asset that requires coordinated protection. This move signals that the preservation of the Farley building is a high priority for the HDC, the Heritage Commission, and the Historical Society. Residents interested in the future of this town property should keep an eye on the Select Board agenda for the upcoming meeting on June 22. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/hollis/historic-district-commission/2026-06-04/ #MeetingWatch #HollisNH
