# 10-8-26 Ordinance Review Committee

The Lyman Ordinance Review Committee met on October 8, 2026, to resume work on town bylaws, ordinances, and coordination with the comprehensive plan process. The committee unanimously elected Tom Hatch vice chair and approved the existing bylaws and mission statement. Members discussed creating a shared spreadsheet to track ordinance changes and rationale, and identified older ordinances for review, including records and positions, street addressing, military tax exemption, dog, sex-offender recall, and pace-related ordinances. They also discussed reviewing the first sections of the SNPDC audit and state legislative requirements, including legislation expected to affect housing and local land-use ordinances. The committee plans to seek SNPDC’s guidance at its next meeting on which ordinance work can proceed before the comprehensive plan is finalized; a survey of residents about land-use issues was also discussed for possible distribution around the November election. No procurement activity, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified.
