The Planning Board has been working since July 2013 on this year’s Town Meeting Zoning Ordinance Amendments. The Board held many subcommittee meetings, workshops and public hearings on the proposed changes and values all the comments and hours of participation by Town residents and business owners. As part of a public education series about the 11 Planning Board proposed Zoning Ordinance amendments on the Town Warrant, the Planning Board is reaching out to the public with a series of news articles. This article explains Amendments #2 & 4.
