Policies and Ordinances

The Zoning Ordinance was first created in 1956 and has been revised numerous times through warrant articles at Town Meeting. Only the lastest version of the ordinance is valid for current projects, but older copies can help explain what was allowed when a previous project occurred.

As we work through our archives, we will upload older copies for reference here. If you need an older copy, you can always get in touch through the Contact Us page.
