Brewster's Special Fall Town Meeting is on November 13, 2023 at Stony Brook Elementary School at 6:00pm

The special fall town meeting will tackle crucial aspects of Brewster's infrastructure, housing, and community regulations. Lower Cape News sat down with Town Manager Peter Lombardi for more insight into agenda topics:

This article concentrates on the Town of Brewster's standard capital and special project expenses.
A total of $3.3 million in funding requests is under consideration.
Of the requested funds, $750,000 stems from free cash, while a substantial portion focuses on golf capital requests.
Notably, the Select Board seeks $100,000 to develop a pond management plan and conduct pilot studies based on recommendations from the Water Resources Task Force.

Allocated funding of over $2.5 million aims to propel the Millstone Road Improvement Project forward.
A five-plus-year-long project has evolved after several community forums and adjustments based on resident feedback.
The project aims to enhance road safety and pedestrian connectivity without requiring permanent easements.

A proposal seeks to amend Brewster's zoning bylaw concerning ADUs, responding to changing community needs.
Streamlining the existing bylaw is on the cards to facilitate residents in building ADUs, reflecting a more welcoming approach towards this land-use option.

Article 13 aims to establish a new registration system for the existing 1,100 short-term rental units in Brewster.
Article 14 seeks to limit the number of short-term rental units an individual can own, focusing on maintaining a balance between full-time residents and part-time residents.
