Purpose

The purpose of the EI zone is to permit the continued viability and expansion of higher education institutions in designated districts of the town in a planned manner, while protecting surrounding cultural, historic, and environmental resources. It is hereby recognized that a higher education institution exists in the town. In order to recognize this existing development and to permit this institution to grow and expand, an EI zone has previously been incorporated into Table A—Permitted Use Table and Table C—Dimensional Table. The standards and criteria for the EI zone are hereby created and mapped on the official zoning map.
