Town Meeting Warrant Article of the Day: Articles 35, 36, and 37
As we ready for Town Meeting on May 16, 2023, the Town will be presenting information every day on different warrant articles.
Articles 35, 36, and 37 are housekeeping articles due to Article 34.
Article 35: Amend Zoning Bylaw – Section 2, Definitions.
This Article proposes to delete the definition of Day Care Center. The reason for the deletion is that Article 34 proposes to include a definition for ‘child care facility’ that is consistent with MGL c. 40A §3 (also known as the Dover Amendment) within Article 8 Supplementary Regulations, Part 3 Site Plan Review.
Article 36: Amend Zoning Bylaw – Day Care Center.
This Article eliminates the use special permit requirements for a day-care center, as a day-care center is a use consistent with MGL c. 40A §3 (also known as the Dover Amendment) and renames day-care center as a child care facility, again, consistent with MGL c. 40A §3.
Article 37: Amend Zoning Bylaw – Chapter 195, Attachment 2, Table 1 – Summary of Use Regulations.
This Article proposes to rename day-care center as child care facility and explains which zoning districts permit child care facilities. In addition, the Article eliminates the special permit requirement for the use.

Town Meeting Warrant Article of the Day: Article 34: Amend Zoning Bylaw – Article 8 Supplementary Regulations
As we ready for Town Meeting on May 16, 2023, the Town will be presenting information every day on different warrant articles.
Article 34: Amend Zoning Bylaw – Article 8 Supplementary Regulations
This Article proposes to create a formal review process with the Planning Board as the regulatory authority for proposed uses that are consistent with MGL c. 40A §3 (also known as the Dover Amendment).
The Dover Amendment exempts agricultural, religious, and educational uses from certain zoning restrictions. By limiting what zoning requirements apply to land and structures that hold these uses, the Dover Amendment makes it easier for these uses to build structures to serve their needs.
