High court backs elderly housing

September 17, 2004

NH Business Review Staff,

The state Supreme Court has upheld Newmarket’s elderly housing zoning ordinance.

The ruling brings CCW Management of Concord one step closer to constructing a 57-unit elderly housing project on a nine-acre site at 292 Wadleigh Falls Rd.

Abutters had appealed a 2003 zoning board decision, claiming it was vague and constituted spot zoning. A lower court backed the decision.

The town Planning Board approved CCW’s proposal in the spring, and abutters subsequently challenged that vote in Rockingham Superior Court. A hearing was held in August. No decision has yet been announced.
