Fees
Please see the Zoning Fees Schedule to determine what fees are required with your particular application.
Sketch
All projects require a sketch of some kind to indicate that it meets zoning standards. (See Letter F in the Zoning Application.) We’ve provided a Sample Sketch Drawing to provide you with an example. Most DRB applications also require that the map is drawn to scale.
Subdivisions
***Note the difference between minor and major subdivisions***
A minor subdivision creates 3 lots or less and all lots comply with district standards. It does not require additional forms beyond the standard Zoning Application form. If creating more than three lots, see below.
And for Subdivisions: Plat Recording Required
Note that according to state law all subdivisions (major and minor) need to be “plat recorded” with the town clerk within 180 days of approval to be legally binding.
“The approval of the appropriate municipal panel shall expire 180 days from that approval or certification unless, within that 180-day period, that plat shall have been duly filed or recorded in the office of the clerk of the municipality. After an approved plat or certification by the clerk is filed, no expiration of that approval or certification shall be applicable.” 24 V.S.A. § 4463(b).
Zoning and Project Registration Forms
Most projects require a Building and Minor Subdivision (Zoning Application) form submitted to the Town Office with a $60 filing fee, payable by check or through the credit card payment option on the home page of this website.
Some minor projects only require a Project Registration Form, which does not have an associated fee. You can find more information about these projects in the Project Registration Form Activities page.
