Planning commission schedules POCD referral, discusses digital packets and other administrative items
Summary
Commission approved minutes, learned the draft POCD will go to the town council Jan. 27 with a public hearing in early February, and discussed training and moving to electronic packet distribution (Dropbox/iPads) to address postal delays.
At the end of the meeting the commission reopened regular business, approved minutes with a small edit and discussed administrative items.
Staff said the draft Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD) will be referred to the town council on Jan. 27 and the commission's public hearing on the POCD is scheduled for the first meeting in February. The planning staff also said training opportunities will be scheduled for commissioners and proposed bringing a third‑party attorney to review roles and responsibilities.
Commissioners and staff discussed packet delivery problems and the potential to provide town devices and a shared Dropbox for live, electronic access to application materials. Staff said the town had evaluated costs and that a Dropbox workflow would be available when the commission is resourced for it.
Other brief items flagged for future meetings included the West Main Street appeal presentation and an application for Stonebridge Crossing.
