Virtual Advanced Land Use Academy Training: 2/2/2023 - 2/16/2023
In February 2023 we offered a VIRTUAL version of our “Advanced Training” for land use commissioners over Zoom. The training was offered over three consecutive Thursdays in February. All sessions were 1.5 hours long.
If a land use commissioner attended or watches the recordings of all 3 sessions they could meet most of their training requirement for the year, at least theoretically – it is ultimately up to each town to determine whether the statutory requirements are met.
