Demolition Delay Draft at Upcoming Wenham Town Meeting
Posted on March 11th at 10:07pm.
Wenham has a proposed Demolition Delay Bylaw by the Historical Commission on the warrant for the upcoming Town Meeting on April 4th. You can find a draft of the bylaw here.
The proposal would impact structures built in 1875 or earlier. If the structure is determined by the Historical Commission to be a ‘significant building’ and preferably preserved then there would be a 6 month waiting period before a demolition permit could be issued.
Wenham does not currently have a demolition delay in their zoning bylaws.
