Montgomery Planning Commission recommends retaining 'plot' term, adding 'plat plan' definition and removing 'bed and breakfasts' from bylaws

Sep 22, 2026

The Commission reviewed a Sept. 8 draft of the town's zoning bylaws and recommended several editorial and definitional changes, including a new 'plat plan' definition (licensed professional), retaining 'plot' in Table 5, and removing the bed-and-breakfast definition and references.

The full story

During its Sept. 22 special meeting the Montgomery Planning Commission walked through the 9-8-26 draft of the town's zoning regulations and identified multiple targeted edits. Commissioners asked Emily to accept typographical corrections from members and directed Diane Sherman to draft precise exemption language for short-term rentals. The Commission recommended retaining the word "plot" in Section 4.1(B) and in Table 5, adding a sentence that "Other provisions in these Regulations establish additional requirements for the plot plan or plat plan required to be submitted in conjunction with the specific application," and creating a new definition for "plat plan" that would require completion by a licensed professional and be required for PUDs (planned unit developments).
