Notes from the Planning Board, September 19, 2023, hybrid

At the request of three members, the PB spent the meeting sharing what they would like to review during meetings. Sally Underwood Miller, Conservation Commission, was prepared to discuss specific differences in bylaws over which PB has authority and ones over which ConCom has authority. She expressed the need for any differences to be aligned. She also said there may be minor changes associated with climate change for example ground water bylaws and aspects of Lake and Pond Overlay District (LPOD) 

Members of the PB seemed to articulate more general concerns.

Carl Sprague supported Underwood-Miller and said there was housekeeping to be done correcting small discrepancies. However, he went on, our bylaws are working, and we should leave them alone. Sprague concluded, our bylaws serve and protect the broader community by keeping Stockbridge as it is.
