-
Day 1 is the day the homeowner or their representative sends a COA via email or delivers it in paper form to the Town Hall Clerk. There is a total of 65 days to review the COA and vote.
The review of the COA is added to the next monthly meeting.
-
You are sent an agenda and how to join us at the meeting. We review and discuss your COA and plans if provided.
-
For example, if the change is “in kind” and/or it CAN NOT be seen from a public way.
We appreciate you letting us know about your project and you can proceed. -
We elect to have a site visit before accepting your COA to determine if a COA is needed. We schedule the visit.
We’ll ask you to resubmit your COA if one is needed and meet at the next monthly meeting. -
We accept your COA, and you are invited to join us at our next monthly meeting.
1. At this first meeting, we discuss the project and review details for scale and character. Identify any items that may need rethinking and arrive at an acceptable solution.
2. We run a notice in the paper announcing a public hearing.
3. At the next monthly meeting, a public hearing is held. Public opinion is heard, and that part of the meeting is closed. Then the Commissioners discuss with the applicant and talk amongst themselves. Then the Commissioners vote.4. The applicant receives a signed copy of the COA and its status.
-
Special Meetings are infrequent and as needed. They are additional to monthly meetings.
The reason for them is something out of the usual. The most common reason is related to large projects. -
No Meeting is determined when we have no COA’s or commission business to discuss.
This is usually decided on the COA submission date for the next monthly meeting.
