Auger v. Town of Strafford, No. 2006-646, SUPREME COURT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE, August 23, 2007, Opinion Issued
View this case - free  

Overview: Because there was no evidence that a loop road configuration would cause undue hardship or injustice to a developer, as required by RSA 674:36(II)(n) (Supp. 2006), the town board erred by waiving a 10-lot requirement; the trial court should have reversed approval of the wetlands area for lack of specificity instead of remanding it.
