Laconia has a set of requirements that are attached to any approval that seem to get copied and pasted from one project to the next.
It makes no difference if your project is different or the requirements are unnecessary and will only add costs to the person proposing the project. It is like the Laconia policy is: "We are going to do what we do because that is what we have always done". Common sense is left out of the decision and approval process.
They are wasting time making development difficult while ignoring zoning violations in other areas. A case of misplaced priorities that deprives the city of tax revenue and drives up the cost of any project.
