You must appear before town planning staff, then planning board, then town commissioners, and it all takes time, and they often want things such as road widening improvements in the area of your development, contributions to the cost of street lights, they want impact fees, and if schools are overcrowded they may make your project next to impossible.

It has five commissioners, each appointed for a five year term that is staggered so that one new commissioner is being replaced every year.
