Planning & Zoning

Please bear with us while we work to revise our land use application procedures during this time! All Planning & Zoning, Wetlands, Aquifer, Zoning Board of Appeals, and Historic District applications can be filed online through ViewPermit:  https://www.viewmypermitct.org/ 

Planning Staff has the ability to advance all administrative permits (zoning permits, sign permits, home office/occupation permits, dumpster permits, temporary storage container permits, etc.). 

Presently, all Public Meetings, including Land Use Commission meetings, have been postponed until further notice. Town Hall Staff are looking into forming a system to allow e-meetings. In the meantime, Planning Staff are working with Commissions to administratively approve as many items as possible and for which administrative approval is feasible. We will be sure to keep the public informed and updated as our processes evolve!
