Town consultant guidance prompts telecom bylaw review; Town Plan revisions deferred
Summary
Zoning Administrator Steve Rooney reported on consultant discussions about telecommunication tower permitting and noted bylaw language should be strengthened if the town becomes an interested party; Town Plan revisions were not addressed due to time constraints.
Zoning Administrator Steve Rooney told the commission he had discussed telecommunication-tower permitting with the town's consultant and noted the town cannot prevent a state permit. The minutes record that if Starksboro becomes an 'interested party' in state permitting the town will need strong bylaw language; commissioners agreed to revisit the section after Town Plan revisions.
The agenda item for Town Plan revisions was not addressed due to lack of time and was deferred. Commissioners indicated the telecommunication section will be revisited once the Town Plan work resumes and the compiled bylaw draft is prepared for the Selectboard.
