<div style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman',
times; color: #000000;"> Only Town Meeting can change the
bylaw. Without Town Meeting action, nothing was removed from
the bylaw. So, saying "Bylaw Changed without Town Meeting
Approval" is simply false as a matter of law. </div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Everyone,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have a situation where it appears a
section from the Town’s Zoning Bylaw was removed WITHOUT
approval from Town Meeting. It appears to have occurred
during a recodification/reformatting of the bylaw, but there
was no Town Meeting process or a Town Meeting vote which
authorized the removal of this language. This appears to
have happened sometime back in the mid to late 1990s.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am wondering if this language which was
removed is still valid and applicable as part of the Zoning
Bylaw since it was removed without the appropriate Town
Meeting process or vote? If so, can this language just be
reinserted back into the Zoning Bylaw? Or, is the only way
to get the language back into the Zoning Bylaw by going
through the full Town Meeting approval process?</p>
