The duties and responsibilities of the Easton Planning & Zoning Board are clearly defined within Chapters 40A, 40 Section 15C, and 41 of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. These sections of the General Law are referred to respectively as the Zoning Act, the Scenic Roads Act, and the Subdivision Control Law. Within the framework provided by these laws and regulations, the members and staff of the Planning and Zoning Board seeks to manage the growth of the community through promoting development which preserves large tracts of open space, preserves Easton’s remaining rural character and minimizes the long-term operating costs to the town. Part of this activity involves considering the issuance of special permits for flexible development with uses that respect the land and natural resources of the community.
