Geographic Areas Affected
The entire Town of Weathersfield is affected by this amendment.

Sections Headings
Section 6.10.7, Agricultural Zoning, is the only section affected by this proposed amendment. The "Weathersfield, VT, Farmland Conversion Impact Rating" worksheet is proposed as an Appendix to the Weathersfield Zoning Bylaws as part of this proposed amendment.

Copies of the full text of the proposed amendment, including the Impact Rating worksheet and the Planning Commission Report, are available for review at the Weathersfield Town Office and the Weathersfield Proctor Library in Ascutney, Vermont.
