Starksboro planning commission approves open-space bylaw rewrites, edits section 358H
Summary
On June 18 the Starksboro Planning Commission unanimously approved rewrites to the town's open-space bylaw, adopting an edit to section 358H to change wording to "lot size by density" and agreeing to revisit the phrase "in perpetuity" in a future revision.
The Starksboro Planning Commission voted unanimously June 18 to accept rewrites to the town's open-space bylaw and to adopt a specific edit to section 358H, changing the phrasing to "lot size by density." Dan Nugent, Planning Commission member, made the motion: "D. Nugent moves to accept rewrites of 358 with the suggested edit to 358H." David Schmidt seconded and members voted "All in favor."
During review commissioners also discussed whether the common phrase "in perpetuity" should remain in the open-space language or be revised; members agreed to address that wording in the next revision. The decision finalizes the current round of edits and directs staff and commissioners to incorporate the 358H edit into the draft, with additional language work on the "in perpetuity" phrase to follow at a future meeting.
