Fayston planners discuss newspaper notice, decline change over cost and role
Summary
Commissioners reviewed Sections 3.2–3.4 of their Rules and Procedures and considered adding meeting notices to the Valley Reporter but decided not to change the rules, citing cost and that the advisory commission is not required to publish newspaper notice.
During a review of the Planning Commission Rules and Procedures (dated April 8, 2024), members discussed whether to add a published meeting notice in the Valley Reporter but ultimately made no change.
Minutes record that commissioners raised cost concerns about publishing notices in the Valley Reporter and noted that "Quasi-judicial entities are required to provide notice in the local newspaper, but the Planning Commission is an advisory group, so is not required to publish notice in the newspaper." The commission agreed to make no changes to Sections 3.2–3.4 at this time.
