Moratorium in Fairlee extended for now

FAIRLEE—The Fairlee Selectboard extended the building moratorium around Lake Morey on Monday night following a public hearing. An initial one-year moratorium was set to expire on Sept. 27.
Still, town officials said they are hopeful of lifting the moratorium well before September 2023. They hope to put proposed zoning bylaw amendments in front of voters next spring that would increase oversight of new building and septic capacity around the densely developed lakeshore.
