• Responses to the 4/19/12 Plan-link posting:
  "I am looking for examples of towns that have incorporated portions of the 2008 Innovative Land Use Planning Techniques to strengthen 1. the erosion/sedimentation control and 2. The permanent stormwater  management sections of their site plan or subdivision regs. I’ve looked at quite a few on the list on the OEP website and most just have either very minimal language or one of the old models. I have several towns interested in adding some portions of the new model language to improve what they have. Have others used certain portions of the two models (or one or the other)?"
