The Town of Roxbury Board of Selectmen voted 3-0 on May 20 to approve certification of a proposed Subdivision Ordinance, confirming the draft follows Shoreland Zoning minimum lot standards as advised by the Androscoggin Valley Council of Governments (AVCOG).
Chair Timothy Derouche moved to approve certification of the proposed Subdivision Ordinance; Selectman Matthew Patneaude seconded the motion and the board voted unanimously to adopt the certification. AVCOG had reviewed a public-hearing question and confirmed that the town’s ordinance language aligns with the applicable Shoreland Zoning minimum lot standards.
