10.13.2026 Technical Advisory Committee Work Session

The City of Portsmouth, New Hampshire Technical Advisory Committee held a work session on October 13, 2026, reviewing four private development proposals. At 635 Lincoln Avenue, the owner discussed subdividing a merged lot, which would require variances for frontage, setback, and lot area; committee members raised issues involving street trees, driveway and utility access, sidewalk accessibility, and fire separation. At 200 Market Street, the applicant presented a mixed-use project combining three lots, with 11 residential units, ground-floor commercial space, and vehicle stackers. Discussion focused on building height and parking relief, utility and transformer capacity, sprinkler-water demand, open-space requirements, and access and circulation.
