At a Case Management Conference regarding appeals for a 69-unit residential development, the Blue Mountain Watershed Trust Foundation requested party status to address flood plain protection issues.
The applicant opposed the request, arguing it would duplicate efforts, while the Town and County supported it.
The Tribunal granted party status to the Foundation, finding it had key interests and its intended expert evidence was necessary.
Participant status was also granted on consent to three individuals.
A further Case Management Conference was scheduled to finalize the Procedural Order and Issues List.
