Groton Planning and Zoning Commission - 11/10/26

The Groton Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, held November 10, 2026, included unanimous approval of meeting minutes after members discussed clarifying edits. Most of the meeting focused on the town’s middle-housing zoning study: commissioners and staff discussed potential zoning changes, parent-child lot subdivisions, attainable housing, opportunity-area maps, and hypothetical development scenarios. Staff said the study is aimed at incremental infill development and that pre-approved housing designs were not included in the current project because they would require additional funding—potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars—with a future grant mentioned as one possibility. No new funding or procurement action was approved.
