Dear Unit Owners,
Please be advised that the Town of Smithfield Planning Board will hold a public hearing on Thursday, February 19, at 6:00 PM at Town Hall. The proposed development located uphill from our condominium community will be on the agenda.
Importantly, the Town will not be mailing notices to us, so this communication serves as early notice to ensure our community is informed and prepared.
The Management Committee has significant concerns regarding this development and its potential impacts on our property, including but not limited to:
- Drainage and stormwater runoff
- Blasting and vibration impacts
- Increased erosion and slope stability
- Construction-related noise, dust, and traffic
- Long-term effects on infrastructure and utilities
- Environmental impacts and property values
- Changes to neighborhood character and density
- Visual impacts, including loss of natural buffers and sightlines
- Long-term maintenance and impacts on our drainage systems
It is critically important that we have a strong in-person presence at this hearing to ensure our concerns are heard and formally entered into the public record.
Additional information will be provided as it becomes available. For now, please save the date and plan to attend if you are able.
Thank you for your attention and involvement in protecting our community.
Sincerely,
The Management Committee
