The Power of Paint. Burlington is fortunate to be co-hosting (with Preservation Burlington) our friend Sally Zimmerman, Manager of Historic New England’s Historic Homeowner Program on Friday and Saturday, May 11-12. See attached event flyer, and come join us in understanding the power and opportunity of historic paint color in the context of Burlington’s neighborhoods.
- EXCITING NEWS! Check out our new planBTV Public Input Web Tool! For several months now, we gathered comments for planBTV through diverse avenues. You wonder what we've heard? This tool allows you to view all the input we received. Anything missing, then ADD your new idea and/or comment right there.
- The Dept. of Planning and Zoning has resently begun sending courtesy notices to property owners who have Zoning Permits that will expire in the coming month. Our hope is that this will help complete the project and close the permitting process before the permit actually expires. This will save both the property owner and City staff time and money, and ensure that our records are up-to-date. If you get one of these letters and have questions, please call us and we will be more than happy to help.
- The latest version of the Burlington Comprehensive Development Ordinance is now available. All amendments through 11/11/11 are included.
- Pending amendments to the Comprehensive Development Ordinance can be found at: Amendments before the Planning Commission or Amendments before the City Council .
