Planning Board Adopts Stormwater Management Regulations

PLANNING BOARD ADOPTS STORMWATER MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS

The Planning Board recently amended its Site Plan Review Regulations to include specific provisions for stormwater management.  The general purpose of these regulations is to establish minimum requirements and procedures to control the adverse effects of increased stormwater runoff, degradation of surface & groundwater, and non-point pollution associated with impervious surfaces, new development, expanded development and redevelopment. These provisions became effective on July 24, 2018.  See Site Plan Review Regulations, Section XVII, A-H for reference. Questions regarding the new stormwater management provisions should be directed to Angela LaBrecque, Town Planner at 677-4228 or alabrecque@meredithnh.org
