The Ferrisburgh Selectboard will hold a Public Hearing on Tuesday December 16, 2025, at the Town Offices at 6:30 pm to listen to public comment on proposed amendments to the Town Plan and adoption, pursuant to 24 VSA 4385.

Statement of Purpose:

The purpose of a Town Plan is to provide sufficient up to date data and information, policies, and recommendations, to guide orderly development within the Town. Town Plans should be updated every 8 years. The present Town Plan was last amended in August 2017.

Summary of Amendments:

The Plan includes updated maps and new maps with data from the Agency of Natural Resources (ANR) and from Addison County Regional Planning (ACRP). Maps include: Water Resources/Watershed; Wetlands and River Corridors; Significant Habitat and Forest Blocks; Primary and Statewide Soils; Conserved and Public Lands; Population Density; Transportation; Community Facilities; Transportation Safety Concerns; Present and Future Trails; Septic Suitability, Wells and Private Water Lines; Flood Hazard Areas.

The Planning Areas Map has been updated to create an area called Mixed Use, and to broaden the Lake Champlain Shoreland area. 

A new section has been added on Flood Resilience. The updated Plan includes the most current demographic and housing data. 

Policies and Recommended Actions have been updated in all sections of the Plan. 

A copy of the Draft 2025-2033 Ferrisburgh Town Plan is available at the Town Offices during regular business hours and available on the Town Website. For more information contact the Town Clerks office at 802-877-3429
