Overview


This commission advises the Town Board on planning and zoning issues. In long-range planning matters, it prepares land use, transportation and community facility plans. The commission helps implement plans through recommendations to the Town Board for changes in the zoning ordinances. The commission also reviews land subdivisions, site plan proposals for commercial and industrial buildings, rezoning requests, variances, conditional use permits and other land use issues. Their recommendations then go to the Town Board for final action.
