Introduction to Planning & Zoning
The role of the Planning and Zoning Commission is to ensure that
changes in the Town of Clinton are in harmony with the heritage
of our town and the outlook for the future. We do this by
coordinating the long term planning for the town and then
developing regulations that support these decisions. Most
importantly, we depend on input from the community, both
individuals and groups, to develop the plans and regulations for
the town.
Our chief planning
document is the Town Plan of Conservation and Development.
This document must be up-dated at least every 10 years. We
develop the plan by eliciting information from the community and
examining the progress on issues from the past. Once we have a
good draft document formal public hearings are held to provide a
chance for additional comments. When the final document is
approved, it becomes the template our town will use to evaluate
any proposed changes.
The goals of the
Town Plan of Conservation and Development need to be
supported by regulations that promote the desired activities in
each specific area of the town. The Planning and Zoning
Commission is responsible for two sets of regulations,
Zoning Regulations of the Town of Clinton, Connecticut
and Subdivision Regulations of the Town of Clinton,
Connecticut. Based on the Town Plan and concerns brought
to our attention, we carefully amend and modify both sets of
regulations. These regulations seek to balance the rights of
individual property owners with rights of other property owners
in the area as well as the overall plan for the town.
Large projects and
projects that have special circumstances have to come to the
commission for approval. Depending on the proposal the
regulations will determine if a public hearing is held. The
Commission has to determine if the project is consistent with
the regulations and the town plan. Decisions of approval or
denial are made solely on the consistency of the project with
the regulations and plan in effect on the day the proposal was
submitted. We cannot block a project just because we don’t like
it or because there is an angry public hearing. These issues can
be used to help us develop new regulations that would impact
future development. This brings us full circle to our need to
hear from all sides of the Town of Clinton.
