Allenstown Select Board opens public hearing on zoning amendments; no public comment
Summary
The Allenstown Select Board opened a public hearing on proposed zoning ordinance amendments at 6:32 p.m. and closed it about a minute later with no members of the public speaking; the board discussed circulating condensed article language and a motion was made to advance the draft language for further consideration.
The Allenstown Select Board opened a public hearing on proposed zoning ordinance amendments at 6:32 p.m. and closed the hearing at about 6:33 p.m. after noting that no members of the public were present or online to comment.
Board members then reviewed a condensed version of the amendment language that staff circulated in advance. Sarah told the board she had circulated shortened 'article language' reflecting prior discussion and invited edits; a motion and second were recorded to move that language forward for posting and further consideration.
Members noted that most of the changes reflected state legislative requirements and that only one amendment was board‑initiated. Staff emphasized that the zoning changes themselves would not affect the town budget.
The board did not receive public testimony during the hearing. The board’s next steps are to finalize the posted language and return the item to the agenda for any additional procedural steps required before adoption.
