Planning commission votes to ask Select Board to forward Act 181 letter to five neighboring towns
Summary
The commission approved a motion requesting that the Select Board send the commission’s Act 181 letter to planning commissions and select boards of five adjoining towns, inviting them to coordinate and consider joining the initiative; the motion passed by voice vote.
The Grafton Planning Commission voted to ask the town’s Select Board to forward its Act 181 letter to the planning commissions and select boards of five adjoining towns and invite them to consider joining the effort.
Greg moved that the commission request the Select Board send the letter and invitation to the five neighboring towns; the motion was seconded and approved on a voice vote. The commission discussed whether to clear the letter with the Select Board first and agreed the letter will be transmitted for information and to invite coordinated action.
Members said they want a short cover note for neighboring towns explaining the request, and they discussed copying the letter and a brief attachment summarizing the ask. The motion’s passage does not commit other towns; it asks the Select Board to transmit Grafton’s materials and invites others to act.
By way of next steps, commissioners said they will work with the chair and staff to prepare the cover language and provide the final materials to the Select Board for transmission.
