Some of the information on planning.warrenvt.org may be out of date, such as the members and LUDR review materials. Visit the Planning Commission’s page on the town website for more current information.

The LUDRs in their current form were initially adopted in 2001. The town has made a series of minor amendments to the LUDRs over the past 20 years. The 2019 Warren Town Plan recognized that it was time for a comprehensive review and amendment of the LUDRs. The Town Plan identified a need to realign the LUDRs with the town’s planning policies and to address inconsistencies resulting from the many changes that have been made to state statute and programs over the past two decades. There was also a commitment from the PC to improving the clarity of the LUDRs and the town’s development review and permitting processes.

This revision will affect the entire Town in that the existing zoning districts have been renamed and the boundaries redrawn. There are currently 12 Zoning Districts and this revision has ten. There are additionally two Overlay Districts.

The document contains six chapters:
1- General
2- Zoning districts
3- Development Standards
4- Administration and Enforcement
5- Definitions
6- Maps
