Groton — After an 18-month-long effort to update the town's zoning regulations and zoning map, the town Zoning Commission will host a public hearing Wednesday to seek input from residents on drafts of the updated regulations and map.
The project represents the first major update to the regulations in about three decades.
The zoning rewrite is intended "to guide the type of high-quality, vibrant, and sustainable development prescribed by the Town's 2016 Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD), and to make the regulations themselves clear, precise and easy to read and understand," according to a news release from the town.
