Gov. Kelly Ayotte suggests leasing surplus state land for residential development to help curb New Hampshire's housing shortage and attract more workers to the state.
124-unit project seen for Concord
The Concord Planning Board has postponed a decision on a proposed 124-townhouse development on Bog Road.
Developer Reggie Moreau of R.J. Moreau Communities in Bedford filed his application for the Vineyards townhouses last fall, and then went through a series of hearings with the board before being told in April to refine the off-site improvement plan. The board seemed pleased with the new plan.
The project would bring 124 two-story townhouse condominiums spread among 40 buildings, to be built on 34.74 acres. The area is zoned for medium-density residential use, meaning that as many as five units can be built on an acre. With 25-plus buildable acres, the site could actually fit 128 units, according to information prepared by the city’s planning staff.
