These votes move several proposed zoning changes toward consideration at a future Town Meeting. The approved items would affect commercial development, accessory dwelling units, animal-related businesses, enforcement of unsafe or unauthorized structures, covered front entries, and temporary signs for businesses awaiting special sign permit review. The wall art definition needs further review, while the structure proposal received no supporting votes and was not approved.
