DRB introduces NVDA zoning map tied to Act 181; select board opts to keep current map
Summary
DRB member Robert Simms presented an NVDA-proposed zoning district map intended to address state Act 181 housing guidance; after review the Select Board told Simms to inform NVDA that Sutton will retain its existing zoning map.
Robert Simms, a Development Review Board member, presented a draft Town of Sutton zoning district map produced by NVDA to reflect recent state legislation addressing housing (identified in the minutes as Act 181). Simms described the presentation as informational and said he was 'seeking information only' and wanted the Select Board's perspective on how the proposed changes might affect the town.
After reviewing Simms' outline and the NVDA draft, Select Board members told Simms to let NVDA know the town will keep the existing zoning map. Simms said he would take that feedback to NVDA and return with any follow-up. The minutes do not record detailed map changes or a formal vote; the action recorded is the board's direction to communicate the town's preference to NVDA.
