Planning and Zoning Commission


The Planning and Zoning Commission is a five (5) member elected Board with three (3) alternates. The Commission is responsible for regulating all land uses and approving development of land in North Haven, including site plans, subdivisions, zone changes, amendments to Zoning Regulations and special permits. Zoning Regulations have been adopted to protect the health, safety and general welfare of the community.

In addition to applications to the Planning and Zoning Commission, plot plans and Certificates of Compliance, the following are brought to the Land Use Office for review and approval: residential additions, garages, decks, fences and pools. Sign permits are reviewed and approved through the Land Use Office by the Zoning Enforcement Officer.

Complaints regarding Zoning and Inland Wetland violations are vigorously pursued by the Zoning Enforcement Officer. The Town continues to achieve a high rate of zoning compliance.

The Commission meets on the first Monday of the month in the community room of the North Haven Memorial Library, 17 Elm Street at 7:00 p.m.
