The board approved a 250-unit development at 36 Pillsbury Rd. While they addressed safety via 'mitigation,' one board member pointed out a major red flag: the plan relies on monetary payments rather than a specific, engineered plan to fix the Pillsbury/Gilchrist intersection. 🚦

Density is also increasing. The subdivision of 15 Pillsbury Rd was approved, which officials noted counts toward the 310-home density cap for the Woodmont area. This means we are nearing the maximum residential capacity for this zone. 🏡

Longer-form draft.
At the April 8, 2026, Planning Board meeting, several major decisions were made regarding the future of the Woodmont area and the Pillsbury/Gilchrist intersection—decisions that will have long-term impacts on our town's traffic and infrastructure. Significant developments were approved, including a 250-unit residential site plan at 36 Pillsbury Road and a subdivision at 15 Pillsbury Road. While these approvals include various conditions, a critical concern remains: the approach to traffic. Rather than requiring a specific, engineered design for the Pillsbury/Gilchrist intersection to handle the influx of hundreds of new residents, discussions revealed a reliance on monetary mitigation and future studies. Furthermore, the meeting highlighted a growing tension between the Planning Board and the Town Council regarding the Planned Unit Development (PUD) process. Board members noted the need for better 'professional alignment' to avoid public confusion and finger-pointing between the two bodies. As these large-scale developments move forward, residents should continue to demand evidence-based infrastructure plans that prioritize safety and road capacity over mere monetary agreements. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/londonderry/planning-board/2026-04-08/ #MeetingWatch #LondonderryNH
