White Oaks Road Development and Waivers
Multiple subdivision, campground, and density proposals along White Oaks Road involve repeated waiver requests and safety debates.
White Oaks Road proposals have repeatedly sought waivers from engineering and sidewalk rules amid safety and precedent concerns; the planning board has denied most technical waivers while granting one sidewalk exemption, and the zoning board has reduced density on one parcel.
White Oaks Road developments have generated repeated waiver requests tied to subdivisions, campgrounds, and density increases, with debates centering on professional plan requirements, sidewalk mandates, and zoning compatibility.
The issue traces to the April 2026 zoning board denial of a variance for 12 residences on a 10-acre parcel at 238 White Oaks Road, where the board found the applicant failed to prove unnecessary hardship under the five criteria.
This denial prompted a May 2026 planning board review of a separate 26-lot subdivision at 33 White Oaks Road, which was approved after the applicant incorporated sidewalks following an earlier waiver rejection elsewhere, along with acceptance of a conceptual 150-unit mixed-use plan at 1085 White Oaks Road that flagged traffic and density concerns for later site-plan scrutiny.
In June 2026 the zoning board tabled a rehearing request on the 238 White Oaks Road matter for 60 days after a buyer proposed reducing the project from five lots to two new lots plus preservation of an existing home.
The July 2026 planning board then denied six waivers for stamped engineering plans on a 16-site RV campground at 371 White Oaks Road due to precedent and safety risks, while separately granting a sidewalk waiver for the same campground's White Oaks Road frontage by a 6-2 vote, leaving the overall application continued to August.
371 White Oaks Road campground application returns August 4th after applicant secures stamped plans.
