Our Agricultural Zone
Culture, Community, and Future Commercialization
What Happened?
In mid-April of 2024, Plymouth’s planning board received an application for a subdivision and site plan for 12 Smith Bridge Road. The proposed hotel development was commercial in scale and created an access point on a Smith Bridge Road proximate to the failing intersection at Tenney Mountain Highway. After months of deliberation, the application was denied citing public safety.
Key Take-Aways
-
The agricultural zone may allow commercial industrial development with little protections for residential neighbors and other abutters
-
85% of Plymouth is zoned agricultural
-
Misalignment of master plan and zoning regulations
-
Secondary rural roads may become bypasses for commercial traffic
