Planning Commission Meeting May 29: Town Plan and RPD-I Zoning Changes
The Essex Planning Commission will meet at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 29 in the conference room at the Town Offices, 81 Main Street. The agenda includes the following items:
- Public comments
- PUBLIC HEARING on proposed amendments to the Zoning Regulations. The changes aim to bring more clarity to the Resource Preservation District - Industrial (RPD-I) zoning district. A legal appeal currently pending in court calls the RPD-I district "vague" and "standardless."
The draft regulations can be viewed online: http://www.essex.org/vertical/sites/%7B60B9D552-E088-4553-92E3-EA2E9791E5A5%7D/uploads/2014_[...]pdf
