Planning board reviews proposed Zoning Bylaw Review Advisory Committee, tables action to June 12
Summary
The planning board reviewed a proposed advisory committee to update the town zoning bylaw, discussed membership and likely time commitment, and decided to table action until the June 12 meeting to gather more information on member commitments and schedules.
The Town of Lakeville Planning Board on May 22 reviewed a proposed ordinance to establish a Zoning Bylaw Review Advisory Committee tasked with reviewing and recommending updates to the town’s zoning bylaw. The board discussed committee composition and frequency of meetings and agreed to postpone action until the June 12 meeting to collect additional information on member commitments.
The draft establishes a seven‑member committee appointed by the select board, to include the director of inspectional services, one select board member or designee, one planning board member, one zoning/appeals board member, one board of health member, one conservation commission member, and one at‑large member. Appointments are for one‑year terms expiring July 31 each year. Planning board members asked staff to confirm the anticipated meeting frequency and time commitment; one member suggested monthly meetings but deferred to staff to confirm.
The board agreed to table the item to June 12, 2025, to allow staff to provide further information and to permit planning board members to consider serving on the advisory committee.
