Paxton Zoning Survey

Thank you for taking the time to fill out this important survey.

The Zoning Bylaws provide parameters for development that aim to protect the health, safety, and welfare of people in town. It also seeks to preserve the character of the town, conserve open space and minimize traffic. The Zoning Bylaws can be seen using this link. https://www.townofpaxton.net/sites/g/files/vyhlif4846/f/uploads/zoning_bylaw_amend_5.6.19.pdf
