Pursuant to 24 V.S.A. §§4441 (D) and §4444 (a)(b), the town of
Richmond Planning Commission will be holding a public hearing on
Wednesday, December 6, 2023, at 7:00 pm, in the Richmond town center
meeting room at 203 Bridge Street as well as remotely via zoom to
receive comment regarding proposed zoning amendments:
PURPOSE: To modify the Richmond Zoning Regulations (RZR) for the Industrial/Commercial District within the Town of Richmond as well as revisions to the Planned Unit Development section of the RZR. The Industrial/Commercial District will retain its primary emphasis on non-residential development and the retention of land for future commercial purposes, while allowing needed additional housing on lots that, prior to the adoption of zoning, had developed residential uses and have remained so into the current period. Portions of the section “Planned Unit Development” and “Residential Planned Unit Development”, will be revised for clarity and consistency, and the “Master Development Plan” language removed to streamline and clarify Development Review Board procedures. These changes to Section 5.12 will affect any lot within Richmond that proposes to develop according to Section 5.12.
GEOGRAPHIC AREA AFFECTED: Any parcel/s proposing a Planned Unit Development and the following Industrial/Commercial District parcels: GP0198, GP0260, KR0280, KR0854, RG0080, RG0088, RG0090, RG0092, RG0140, RG0226, RG0300, UE0005, WM1436.
SECTION HEADINGS: §3.7 Industrial/Commercial District, §5.12 Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Residential PUD.
