Plainfield records two ordinance actions adopted October 14

Plainfield’s October 15 notice says its October 14 Special Town Meeting adopted two ordinance actions. The Town says Ordinance No. 120, concerning obstruction of sidewalks and highway right-of-way, was repealed, and Ordinance No. 134, concerning building permits, was modified. This is an adopted action, not a proposal. The notice says copies are available for public inspection at the Town Clerk’s Office; it does not reproduce the full text.

What changes

Ordinance No. 120, about obstruction of sidewalks and the highway right-of-way, was repealed.
Ordinance No. 134, about building permits, was amended. The notice does not say what changed.

Who this affects

Anyone applying for a Plainfield building permit. The repeal of No. 120 may matter to people whose property or business uses a sidewalk or road edge, but the notice does not explain its effect.

What to do

Read the adopted text at the Town Clerk's Office, 8 Community Ave., Plainfield. The notice says copies are on file there.
If you have a building project coming up, ask the Building Department whether the amended permit rules change anything for you before you apply. (This is our suggestion, not something the notice says.)
These are adopted actions, not proposals.
