2014.04.28 Council Agenda Item 05
Summary
Introduction by Councilor Pierce of an amendment to the Zoning and Site Plan Review Ordinance to relax zoning provisions for the replacement of utility infrastructure.
A public comment period will not be included with this item.
ACTION: Schedule Public Hearing.
Description
Complex utility systems are located throughout the Town. Many times, these systems are located on private property and in sensitive resource areas. The restrictions placed on typical property development is not easily applied to the replacement, reconstruction or maintenance of these systems. The intent of this amendment is to exempt infrastructure from certain setbacks but require permitting to assure appropriate resource protection while enabling the practical use of the collections systems. Please find attached an introduction letter and a draft amendment.
