<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">

<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Hi everyone,</p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">I need to submit the legal ad for our new ADU bylaw by the end of this week. However, we still haven't had an extensive discussion on the matter, and we’re waiting for HLC’s info session on March 11th to gain more clarity. We’re
aiming to hold a joint PB/ZBA meeting on Mach 17, and our own public hearing on March 24th—the latest possible date to still meet all Warrant Committee and printing deadlines.</p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">My main question is:<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><strong>how detailed does a legal ad for a zoning change need to be?</strong><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span>Initially, I had drafted language
simply stating that the changes were “to conform to the new state law,” (and cited all appropriate State codes) but Counsel advised that much more detail is required. I can add a lot more details based on my current draft, but since we are still awaiting further
guidance on the new law and regulations, my draft may need revisions after the March 11th webinar. I want to provide as much detail as possible, but the reality is that I'm unclear on the details until further meetings are held throughout March.</p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><b>What happens if I submit a legal ad that later turns out to be inaccurate due to further revisions? How are other communities handling this situation?</b></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">For reference, here's my <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y3m20Z_1maHB07d2PTA_GRpjB2s31lFX/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=103443541894153033126&rtpof=true&sd=true">
original legal ad</a>, and here's my <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wNXU2sADs1_nQmb1GkHrEMv2OfvqqFjf/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=103443541894153033126&rtpof=true&sd=true">
more detailed ad.</a></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Looking forward to your thoughts.</p>
