Cottage Era Estate Bylaw virtual meeting for Stockbridge property owners
Stockbridge — Randall Arendt will lead a Zoom event Thursday, Nov. 5, at 7 p.m. for Stockbridge property owners and renters on the town’s Cottage Era Estate Bylaw. The topic will be about conservation zoning techniques that focus on ensuring permanent protection to a community’s most valued assets, including its rural atmosphere, open space, outdoor recreation and trails, clean groundwater resources, and mitigation of the effects of more severe storms.
Arendt, a published author on the subject who has lectured in numerous states, will share his experience in creating effective solutions for governments and individuals in developing bylaws that work to address conservation and redevelopment of properties.
Said Stockbridge Planning Board Chair Bill Vogt: “This is an opportunity to learn about Conservation/Open Space Design Zoning, an exciting but not particularly new concept that provides a more environmentally friendly town voter designed option to control the future of our town.”
The meeting is open to the public; registration is required. For more information or to register, see the Berkshire Edge calendar or contact Bill Vogt at (413) 717-7618.
