Planning Board

The Planning Board’s work is divided between reviewing proposals for development, such as subdivisions and site plans, and preparing recommendations for how best to use land in Swanzey.  These recommendations are formalized in the Town’s zoning ordinance, site plan review regulations, subdivision regulations, and in the master plan.
