More about the Natural Resources Overlay
Wildlife, clean water, forests, fields and hilltops are vital parts of Jericho’s rural character and prosperity, and are highly valued by residents. Jericho’s Conservation Commission (CC) and Planning Commission (PC) have been working together to make sure Jericho’s important natural heritage isn’t lost and that it will be here for future generations of residents. They developed updates to Jericho’s Land Use Regulations that protect Jericho’s natural resources in the form of a Natural Resources Overlay (NRO) district.
After 2 years of community engagement, the Natural Resources Overlay has been approved and incorporated into the Land Use Regulations!
