6 Story Buildings in Williston Town

Past event
Jun 7, 2022, 7 to 9 AM

6 Story buildings in excess of 90 ft tall in the town of Williston.

Jun 7th at 7pm the Williston select board will decide on changing the building rules for Williston to allow 6 story building in the town of Williston.

Currently the apartment buildings in the Williston Town are anywhere from 36 ft flat roof or 52 ft pitch roof. They propose to amend the rule to allow 5 story buildings with living space in the attic, so really it is a 6-floor apartment building 76 ft and then add the pitch roof, these building could exceed 90 ft. The new plan says 64 ft to the top of the 5th floor wall, this is not the total height of the building. It is extremely deceiving.

Do you remember driving through Williston and seeing all the mountains surrounding our beautiful town? That is now restricted by the current 3 story apartment builds. This new proposed regulation would completely block the sky line views of the mountains.

Another part of the proposed plan is to allow the planning and zoning board approve building permits without the select board interaction. This would allow the Planning and Zoning Department to make decisions without input from the residents of the Town of Williston. The Select Board's purpose is to allow the residents of Williston to have a say in what happens in their town.

Attend the June 7th 7PM meeting in the Town of Williston or attend by zoom meeting and voice your opinion.

Reject the proposed increase in building height in the Williston town building rules/specifications.
