The following article has been updated to contain a more accurate Memorandum on Technical Amendments.

On December 21, 2022 the Planning Board voted 5-0 in favor of sending a package of Technical Amendments to the Town Council.  A technical amendments package is usually a collection of amendments gathered over time that are not typically considered major policy changes, but rather a correction of errors, omissions, and imprecise language which emerge through the process of applying ordinance provisions to real world situations. However, in a December 22 Memo Town Planner Maureen O'Meara states, "The Planning Board wants to emphasize that this amendment package goes beyond classic errors and omissions."  As such, the board voted to provide the Town Council with a list that identifies which amendments within the package are considered to be more "substantive." 

The Planning Board developed a working list of technical amendments to the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances through four prior meetings and workshops on September 7, September 21, November 2, and December 7.  The last package was in 2015.
