Community Development

The Community Development Department provides staff support for the Planning Board, Zoning Board of Adjustment, and Conservation Commission.

The department's staff through its various divisions administers the Town's Zoning Ordinance, subdivision and site plan review regulations and processes all associated applications.  The Department coordinates with the Building Department on many permits and licenses.

The department also provides information, services, and assistance to the general public in addressing issues related to planning, conservation and development.

The department welcomes questions, comments or requests for assistance from any resident interested in the wide range of community issues under its umbrella as well as from those with specific individual needs.
