The Planning and Zoning department
is essentially two separate entities. While being closely related,
they have two entirely different functions. The Planning side
deals with how the Town develops, ensuring that current subdivision
regulations are followed, the Town Plan recommendations implemented,
and helping to ensure controlled orderly growth.
The Zoning function is to ensure
that the zoning bylaws are followed. This can mean anything from
issuing building permits, certificates of occupancy, and zoning
enforcement. The function of zoning is to make sure everybody
in town is using the same guidelines as they develop property
and it attempts to control unsightly areas making our town a great
place to live.
