Manchester plan increases downtown housing density
Fermandened Bongartz, chair of the planning board, says the town plan raises downtown dwelling units per acre from three to five or six. Selectmen, planning board, and zoning adjusters review a nearly completed plan at a special meeting. He argues dense downtown delivers public services efficiently and reduces outer-area development pressure. The board aims to keep outlying areas rural and will hold public hearings to gain consensus before adoption.
