Preservation Program will be through two methods, zoning or
agreements. To participate through zoning, the town would have to
adopt new zoning standards. Currently, the Town of Lebanon does not
participate in Farmland Preservation Zoning. To participate through
agreements, the Town must get a state approved Agricultural Enterprise
Area (AEA). The deadline for the first round of AEA applications is
February 26, 2010.

adopted on October 2, 2003. Need to review:
- Driveway Ordinance – look at setback requirements from property
line.

maximums.
- Do we need a condominium ordinance?
7a. Addition to local business – does not need to come before
Planning Committee.
