Planning & Zoning
The Planning & Zoning Department reviews building permits, zoning questions, and development proposals, and provides staff support to the Planning Board and Board of Adjustment.
Common Questions
Do I need a permit to build a fence or shed?
Most fences and accessory structures over 120 square feet require a zoning permit. Call (555) 555-0130 before you start — it's a quick check that can save you a headache later.
How do I find my property's zoning district?
Email Planning & Zoning with your address and we'll look it up, or stop by Town Hall to view the zoning map in person.
How long does site plan review take?
Minor site plans are typically reviewed within 10 business days. Larger developments go through the Planning Board, which meets monthly.
