Commission reviews notice rules and timeline for warned public hearing
Summary
The Commission discussed 15-day warning requirements, inter-municipal notice to abutting towns, coordination with election timelines, and the need for a formal vote to advance draft zoning bylaws before a warned public hearing.
Commissioners discussed procedural steps required to warn a public hearing for zoning bylaw amendments, including the 15-day warning requirement, distribution to abutting municipalities, and coordination with local election timelines. The Chair emphasized that the Commission must take a formal vote to advance the draft before issuing a warning for the hearing.
The Commission tentatively targeted a late March or early April public hearing date, contingent on completion of internal review and formal vote to warn. Staff confirmed that notice distribution and statutory timelines would guide the final hearing date.
