Planning Commission

The Planning Commission writes and revises Essex Junction’s Comprehensive Plan, which is the overarching document that embodies the city’s strategic vision and long-term growth objectives. Within that framework, the Commission also formulates changes to the City’s Land Development Code and Zoning Regulations, which contain the rules and technical specifications that builders and developers must follow to have their projects approved. Commission members are appointed to three-year terms by the Essex Junction City Council.
