Planning Commission PDF Print

The Huntington Planning Commission is made up of 7 members.  Unlike most Planning Commissions in Vermont, our members are elected, not appointed.  The commission is responsible for both planning and regulatory activities in town.  Specifically, the Commission is authorized to:

  • Prepare and present the Zoning Regulations and Subdivision Regulations
  • Hear and decide requests for site plan review, subdivision approval and right-of-way approval
  • Collect data, conduct studies, produce reports and organize information regarding the land use, development and planning in the Town of Huntington
  • Prepare and submit for approval the Huntington Town Plan
  • Draft proposed town regulations and submit for adoption
  • Attach requirements, conditions, and/or reviews to actions on applications presented to carry out the intent and purposes of the Zoning Regulation, the Subdivision Regulation, and the Huntington Town Plan
  • Study planning issues and make recommendations to the Selectboard

The Commission works with the Administrative Officer (formerly called the Zoning Administrator) who issues building permits and the Zoning Board of Adjustment which holds conditional use hearings and variances to zoning and subdivision regulations.

Meetings:
The Planning Commission meets the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month.
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Huntington Town Office
