Commission reviews bylaw wording on RVs, subdivision review and fire-inspection requirement
Summary
The Planning Commission reviewed proposed bylaw language to re-adopt a recreational-vehicle definition (citing FEMA compliance), add an Article IX provision for state highway access and consider requiring a Fire Inspection Results Report before a Certificate of Occupancy.
The Town of Lyndon Planning Commission spent a portion of its Jan. 28 meeting reviewing proposed bylaw text and definitions. Zoning Administrator Jon Prue said the commission should re-adopt a previously omitted definition for 'recreational vehicles' to ensure compliance with FEMA requirements; commissioners agreed to reinstate or clarify that definition in the draft bylaws.
Members also discussed adding language to Article IX to address proposed site plans that involve access to a State highway or work in the state highway right-of-way and reviewed statutory guidance for subdivisions adjacent to State highways under 19 V.S.A. § 1111, which calls for Agency of Transportation review and a letter confirming whether a permit is required. The commission further discussed adding an Article IV requirement that applicants provide the Zoning Administrator with a copy of the Fire Inspection Results Report from the Fire Marshal before receiving a Certificate of Occupancy.
