BUSINESS
Nomination of Liam Griffin to the Ward 7 Steering Committee
**Appointment of representative and alternate to Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan Advisory Committee. Nominated: Liam Griffin (W7), Kacey Boone (W4). 


*In 1992, within the subsection of former 24 V.S.A. § 4406(4) addressing equal treatment of housing, § 4406(4)(D) was added to the state statutes to protect landowners’ ability to create certain types of accessory dwelling units. See 1991, No. 130 (Adj. Sess.), § 3. It provided that: no zoning regulation shall have the effect of excluding for review as a conditional use one dwelling unit constructed within or attached to a primary single family residence located in a district in which single family residences are a permitted or conditional use. 



**At their February 9 meeting, Burlington City Council created an Advisory Committee to work with the City as we create our first Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan. The resolution asks the Ward 4/7 NPA to select one District representative for this Committee. Volunteers are sought. If interested, please come to this meeting!
