The Brentwood Planning Board voted to present several zoning-district amendments for public hearing on December 18.

Speaker 4 summarized the proposed map changes: part of the northern side of North Road would move from multifamily/residential/agricultural to strictly residential/agriculture, while a portion of Pine Road north of a defined line would be designated industrial. Members discussed notice requirements for affected property owners, counting properties for first-class mailing when fewer than 100 parcels are affected, and the logistics of updating GIS ownership records to prepare mailings.

The board approved moving the district-change language forward for the December public hearing and asked staff to calculate affected property counts, prepare first-class mailings where required, and post the legal notice. Several members encouraged outreach to nearby residents ahead of the hearing to explain the scope and potential impacts.

Next steps: staff will prepare the mailing list in coordination with the town clerk and GIS, send notices to owners on affected streets, and include the district amendment language on the December 18 agenda for public comment.
