Board meetings and strategic plans from Town of Chester
The Commission discussed the draft town plan, specifically focusing on the transportation chapter and updates to pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. There was extensive debate regarding the inclusion of snowmobiles as a transportation or recreation mode and the potential economic impacts. Additionally, the group addressed the ongoing challenges and legal sensitivities surrounding Class 4 roads, emphasizing the need for consistency with select board policy and the importance of preserving access while managing recreational use.
The Selectboard discussed various community matters, including infrastructure updates such as road pothole repairs and a federal grant-funded sidewalk and pedestrian project. Reports were provided regarding the town forest project and the Economic Development Committee's initiative to engage local businesses through coffee meetups. The meeting concluded with extensive feedback and reviews of several recent town events, specifically the Chester Festival, the Vermont Foods festival, and the Scarecrow Festival, evaluating their success and logistical planning.
The board reviewed an application for a setback reduction regarding a proposed accessory dwelling unit (ADU) project. Discussions involved the technical aspects of the application, including the application of the local bylaw regarding non-conforming lots, the specific setback requirements, and the orientation of the proposed structure relative to the septic system. Members questioned the septic system design and placement, and the board ultimately moved to close the hearing and enter into an executive session.
