Legally, town land use regs need to be rooted in public health and public safety to be defensible. Making your comments tied to one or both of those helps your argument. Before the meeting be familiar with the area, where is north, street names, and map/lot numbers; often residents don’t know their neighborhood by these details and that hurts your ability to follow along. Address all comments to the chair and not applicant, including your questions. Be familiar with the five conditions to approve a variance in NH (RSA 674:33). If it seems like the decision might not go your way, consider proposing conditions to mitigate your concerns as best possible. NHmunicipal.org writes good layperson blogs on this type of issue. Good luck

Density is the issue and most suggestions here are good. One large impediment to building at scale is lack of public sewer. The issue for small rural communities is asking residents to tax themselves to build a public sewer system that benefits the developer.

Reply to Can an employer change original hourly wage when adding mandatory overtime to avoid paying overtime? by hellorubydoo
This is a pay cut…full stop!!! What happens when you don’t work OT?! Now you’re being paid less than before!
Don’t let the employer make you feel grateful to work OT. An employers job is to hire enough employees to cover the needed hours to complete the work. OT is for exceptional situations like you pour wet cement an hour before quitting time but you need to shape and form it before it sets which requires you to stay an hour longer. OT should not be used to avoid hiring additional workers. And an employer should def not be telling you to take a pay cut to work more fucking hours!

Does Greenfield allow this per zoning?

Basically this…zoning in most communities allow only one, maybe two, structures per lot. Additionally, state septic regulations would also limit/prohibit multiple housing units on a single lot. Subdividing a larger lot to allow multiple tiny homes would be cost prohibitive once you start to build all the infrastructure. The best work around is a tiny home on a mobile platform. Without a fixed foundation it is usually treated like a motor home according to zoning and building codes. Source: I’m a city planner

Public employees see it as Super Bowl, 6-12 months of work and you get that one chance to present the issue and the solution. This is unlike a city council who might meet twice weekeny. I
