Plymouth Survey Results – October 2004 Appendix
2d2. Land Use Regulations/Enforcement (36 written comments):
Inconsistent application of (existing?) regulations
No need for fulltime zoning enforcement person
Need more regulations - My "neighbors" dump their dinner bones in backyard.
Need for a business zone & be more conducive to attract business.
Most land tied up by PSU or current use (not taxable)
Land use permits too high in price.
Lack of enforcement devalued residential properties
Kent/Houle nitpick most applicants - dictate "type of trees" "color of paint" etc. Not their place. Kent
is a big NIMBY. SNOB.
Over regulation is as bad as no regulation
I oppose access for industrial park between TMH & Fairgrounds Rd. There's too much traffic on this
road…
Hope zoning/open spaces a primary concern
Full time enforcement officer needed, i.e. hired to be so - or clearly designated as part of job
Enforcement
Enforce zoning regulations
Better zoning needed
Better enforcement of existing zoning and regulations
Lack of aggressive economic development results
Students are violating # of occupants regulations.
Use the income approach for property taxes
Traffic congestion & drivers without respect or knowledge of laws
Town tells me what to do w/ my property - stop regulating us to death!
Town needs to have better control of new construction.
There is not sufficient regulation for a growing area.
There is a lack of enforcement with over development & building in wetlands.
The planning board regularly oversteps its bounds.
Off campus housing often violates non-related capacity for apartments.
The agricultural gone needs to be regulated in such a way that the home sites which are a menace
to the health & property values of adjacent home owners are condemned or forced to comply to
some type of clean up.
Ordinances re: off campus housing must be enforced-campus living migrating into our
neighborhoods is affecting our way of life & property values!
Stronger and enforced zoning in residential neighborhoods.
Seems to be too strict.
Residential housing being converted to student housing.
PSU should be encouraged to expand, but the town needs to rezone for future growth of off-
campus student housing.
Please enforce land use regulations & the number of vehicles single-family residential housing may
park on a lot.
Over development of green areas
Zoning is poor
The high cost of living in Plymouth restricts older residents for the most part, to subsidized housing.
